Have Questions About Life or Lemon Grove? Have Answers? Here's a Place to Meet & Greet

Sharp-eyed readers may have noticed the new Q&A button atop the home page.  The curious and courageous have clicked on it.  Now it's our turn to explain it.

Q&A is a new feature of Patch local news sites across the county (12) and country — about 350, heading to 500 by the end of the year. This is your chance to ask a question about anything — whether it's where to buy the best s in town or where that came from.

The other side of the coin is answers.  If you see a question that falls into your area of knowledge or expertise, jump in and post a reply.

This is supposed to be helpful, informational and educational.  But not political and personal. So watch what you ask. Be mindful of how you answer.

And keep in mind our Terms of Use.

These apply to all postings on Lemon Grove Patch, including comments on stories. Boiled down, they amount to three main policies: "Keep it clean," "Don't try to trick people" and "Treat others as you'd like to be treated."

Also a reminder:  Use your real name, since the Terms of Use also say:

Patch believes in transparency, and we ask that all your registration information be truthful. You may not use any aliases or other means to mask your true identity. 

Our hope is that Q&A can be a one-stop shop to ease the puzzles of life, or at least the mysteries of Lemon Grove. Thanks for your kind attention and cooperation.

First of many questions: So why did the computer cross the road?
