Frankly, comrades, I subscribe to Dean Chris Berman's teaching:
"There are NO stupid questions---just STUPID PEOPLE that ask them."
(Hehe...that one, a'la many of Boomer's blasts, hit my funny bone.
On a 100% serious note, all, I'm of firm conviction there is, when one
is troubled or puzzled, ONLY ONE stupid question: the one never asked.)
