Hmm. I've been online for nearly 17 years, so there have been a LOT of questions! :-D
What's interesting is the change in tone of the questions over that period. For most of my online life questions were always about writing and publishing (and when was the next AE book out) ;-) But in the last five years or so, the questions became much more personal.
Not just for me -- I see if as part of the general discourse. We all feel much more entitled to inquire into really crass, personal stuff. I don't know if the world is really more interested in the nitty-gritty personal details of someone else's life or we've just come to believe that being rude is normal? ;-)
