In these days of FAQ pages, online advice columns and discussion boards on almost any conceivable topic, it may seem to the casual observer that any reasonable question s/he can think of may now be directed to a person capable of shooting back an informed and helpful answer.
Thankfully, the good folk here at IAQ are not the casual observer.
Having undertaken extensive observations of life on this planet, we have come together from around the globe with a mission: to set your mind free from the things that keep you awake at 2am, nibbling at your consciousness like carp at the surface of a pond, and refusing to go away no matter how much fish food you pour into your ear.
To those of you who wonder, ponder and thonder* about life's small unknowns, let us simply say this: relax! We can and will repair those tiny stress fractures in the majestic swept wing of your knowledge.
Operating as we do on a highly fictitious budget, we cannot guarantee that our answers will always stand up to the test of independent validation, to evidence gathered via the senses, or to cross-examination by those existential wet blankets who so narrow-mindedly insist that broadening one's knowledge must entail searching for the 'truth'. Our sole concern is your peace of mind, and for us, this comes before all else.
Donning our formal wear, we await the fruits of your boundless curiosity.
The Word Nerd.
(* A word we had specially commissioned for this site, meaning "to brood over an unknown fact, like thunder clouds over a moody grey sky".)
