My belief is that the newbies who are interested in pursuing the sport start asking questions quickly - and once they do I think that it's polite for us to help them learn as much, and as quickly as possible. But I wait for them to ask ... after all, there is only so much information in my head and if I start giving it away, I want to make sure that it goes to a good home
