If I had a question on DHTML, there are about 5 people that I would turn
to, and Steve Champeon is one of them. If I wanted to know the history
of DHTML, Steve is probably the only one I would ask. When I have
questions on accessibility, I send them to this list. There are people
here who I consider more knowledgable than others, and when I make a
case on accessibility to my manager, I reference the WCAG list members
quite often. So why, when Joe asks for an expert opinion, is it
offensive?

But it does create a sense of credibility. In the same way that this
bookmark of mine [1] creates a sense of credibility.
