@pooja195, for example... aravindG posted this today in the openstudy feedback and it provided no discussion on OS... He does not practice what he preaches, at least once in a while but hey he is an ambassador so whatever.. http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/51223bf9e4b03d9dd0c5858c

We allow some latitude in OpenStudy Feedback, because it is a community gathering spot of sorts. Still, we do like to keep it quiet.

amistre64 · Answer

how soon we forget our humble beginnings.  It was questions like: what is 2+2 that provided the impetus to all the mathematics that we have today.  It was the desire to base mathematics on a solid foundation of rigor and logic that allows us to use it rather unquestionably in the pursuit of the other sciences.

@amistre64 I admire that response so much that I think it is the best ever on OS Feedback! :-)

Pooja, this is an open site.  If reading a question "2+2" bugs you, move on.  And consider that for many, they may be just trying this out before they actually post a serious question. Maybe they need help.  
Please do not be hasty to judge questions as "dumb".

I agree. As they say, "There is no dumb question!"
