The question mark is best. If people were to ask more questions, perhaps more people would have answers. Certainly more people would get answers. As it is, no one asks. And when no one asks, no one can answer.

Much agreed, but I'm still sticking with ż, as who wants to get the standard set of questions which have been answered many times already anyway...

Excuse me for playing the school marm.

"This is where it's at" is incorrect grammar - you are aware of that, aren't you?
