still answering about once a week

I had good intentions for Slam the Boards, but unfortunately, this is a really busy time of the year at universities, so I've answered a handful of questions at other times. I agree with some other posters--it's really hard to find a question where the user is asking a reference question as opposed to just getting everyone's opinion. I did manage to answer a reader's advisory question (I never get those in academia!) and a few others where I identified myself as a librarian. Others, I've answered as a lay person. I have received a "best answer" but not for my librarian answer. I still look about once a week, usually during my evening reference shift, if it is quiet (and it usually is by 9:30).
