Hang on, Experts Exchange has actual people behind it? I thought it somehow spontaneously congealed out of the random spam swirling around the Internet, like how the Sargasso Sea forms in the dead zone of the North Atlantic out of the detritus and flotsam there. It's where content goes to die. The notion that some sort of malevolent intelligence fuels it is a disconcerting one.

I think it's more like the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, the Sargasso Sea at least has really cool looking seahorses :)
