All education system debate aside...

How do we, as a list, tell what's a homework problem and what's a legit 
question. And if we start blocking "homework questions" a cheater will 
just work around that and word their question into something that seems 
like a personal or work related problem rather then a homework problem.


Just let it go, if you think it's somebody "cheating" then don't answer, 
or give them a vague answer or point them to places where they can learn 
about it rather then copy it off of.
