    With the frequency of " Help! My _________ is broken!" threads in here, I thought we should get a list of our resident experts in certain fields, so people know who knows what about what. I am speaking from a predominantly practical aspect; iow, I will be of no help to anyone unless it's an academic question or about an old movie or something equally useless in terms of the " Help, my __________ is broken!" needs of this board. I have a few areas, and thought people who were willing could offer their areas of expertise...for example I didn't know until yesterday that andymoon is a computer pro, and better still, very willing to help.


    I know particular problems can still be resolved by a "Help!" thread, and this isn't meant to replace those, this is sort of a combination of an interest thread ( knowing who knws what about practical issues) and a sort of menu for people in future trouble. I think it would also be helpfull of other posters to submit the names of people who have helped them with specific problems, as a sort of stamp of approval. This is a great community, and this is a way of celebrating that aspect, and further informing people about what we have here.



    These are areas I see as being common needs in here, but please sggest others, or if you have a skill in an area I didn;t cover, even if you feel it is somewhat rarely required, please put it down under the grounds of youneverknow.


    Computers ( buying and/or problems with.

    Cars ( same )

    Cooking

    Electronics ( same)

    Travel ( recomendations and advice on specific areas)

    Real estate

    Investments

    Bars/Restaurants ( primarily Houston, I assume)

    Health Concerns ( Obviously only for minor issues)

    Academic Help ( general procedural questions of specific subjects)

    Movies ( reviews and recommendations)




    Those are all I can think of off the top of my head, but please offer more, and please either put yourself down if you have something to offer in any of the areas, or suggest people in here who do ( and are willing to share their knowledge).

    I'm pretty good with vitamins, supplements, and the like. I've done a lot of research just for my own personal reasons, like high cholesterol and triglycerides. I also have a Physician's Desk Reference for Nutritional Supplements at my disposal.
