Looks pretty :)

Question: What is the default timeout for a question? It seems that homework help is typically one of those "I need this answer sometime tonight, before I have to turn it in." So, wouldn't it be wasting tutor time if the question is old and the asker is no longer interested?

The user can choose a "need answer by" date in the question posting process, there is no default timeout at the moment...
