Asking questions is not enough, because there is an unlimited supply of them. You can keep asking question after question to sustain endless doubt or to avoid certain conclusions.

Questions alone are not productive. Asking questions and being willing to deal with delayed, missing, incomplete, unexpected and unwelcome answers is where it's at.
