I think that the one thing that EVERYONE here has to understand is that YOU DO NOT KNOW EVERYTHING! That is the purpose of this site. It is a place for peolple with similar interests and a shared hobby to come together to talk, share photos, and most importantly learn from each other. None of us claim to be the end all say all of herpetoculture. But everyone has something that they can contribute. You ask me to ID a salamander, and you can actually watch my eyes glaze over. You ask me about a Rattler, and I am all over it.
There is a major difference between a young person and a child. There are a few people here that are young, but have the desire to learn from the more experienced keepers. There is only so much that you can learn from a book. You can read how to give a SubCu injection to a 14 foot African Rock Python, but that does not mean that you know how to do it. The difference between a child and a young person is that the child thinks he can, and the young person wants to learn. A child has a ball python and maybe a leopard gecko and thinks that makes them an expert. The true "experts" know that there is always something left to learn.
As far as William is concerned. Right now he strikes me as a child (just my opinion). But that is no reason to chastize him. Perhaps he will hang out and learn from the vast amount knowledge present on this site.
