It is correct that you should try to be as precise and
complete when you describe a problem. This helps people
help you, but it helps other people as well who just
reads to understand more, and last but not least it
helps *YOU* (the poster of the question), by expressing
the problem you gain an understanding of the problem,
that in turn can help you solve it...

That said, as long as there is no way to be active on
the SX sites from Emacs (is there?), and even so
actually, there is nothing wrong asking the same
question here as many people don't like those SX sites
which are Asberger OCB and dojo black-belt mania all
over the place.

At the same time there is no denying it is a good
resource for many situations...

There was a guy on this group - a Slavonic name... (?)
- who worked on some Emacs module that would allow you
to browse those sites very fast. You can do that
already for example with Emacs-w3m, but this were more
to the point. The next step, if it isn't possible
already, how to post from Emacs.

Another idea would be to hook the Emacs "tab" of the SX
sites to this list, and then hook our mail/post replies
back to them. I personally wouldn't put an effort into
it, but for those who like those sites it much suck to
have to use a browser to access and interact with the
material.
