Question

This seems like a really stupid question.  But then, my old boss used to say “There are no stupid questions.  There are only stupid people asking questions.”  First, I am obviously logged in, or I would not be able to create this topic.  But second, I do not see any way to reply to someone else’s post.  I do not see a reply button or any hint of where to look for one.  Given the hundreds of thousands of replies here there must be a way.  Anyone?  Bueller?

OK. You can see by my reply to my own question that I’ve found the secret. The “Reply” box appears at the end of other replies. If the topic has multiple pages you have to go to the last page to find the reply box. Since this was a new topic the box was right there. Case closed.

So: not a stupid question, as you initially surmised. 😜

And your old boss was wrong. Stupid people don’t ask questions; stupid people criticise people asking questions. A stupid question is one already asked and answered.
