So we give away 5 minute chunks of our time for the benefit of the networking community. It's a large chunk of what makes 'best common practices' evolve. (Hint - that consultant you hired? How much of *their* knowledge did they aquire from other people's free advice?)
Also if it's something that makes you go "huh, good question" the time spent to research it can often pay off later (several times now I've spent hours thinking over a list question, and had something similar asked of me in my day job only a few days or weeks later).
