I think we were talking about two different things. Yeah, I think people learn better when they work out the answer themselves rather than just ask.
In my mind, though, I saw a kid standing in front of a nuclear reactor asking whether it was hot inside. That's partially what I was thinking when I answered your question. I wouldn't expect to kid to go and get a degree in nuclear physics, but someone could answer the question in such a way to really excite someone's imagination.
Do you believe this old saying?
