I hack. I've learned most by doing things the wrong way. With that in mind and in the context of a community like stackoverflow, I seek out answers to the questions actually asked, not the 'correct' approach to what the answerer is interpreting the question to be. Likewise, I will try to provide appropriate answers, even if they lead the questioner astray. I want to be as helpful as possible to those hackers intentionally doing things the wrong way.
