Have you ever asked a serious question here on the SW Q&A and then actually taken the advice you recieved? What was it and how did that go?

The simple answer is certainly no. Its possible that one asks a question, hoping to get the answer one wants; maybe to find a like-minded person. It would be nice to get an answer like "Do you know, I feel exactly the same way!". There's an invite! Sometimes the act of articulating it, helps one's thinking to evolve.
