I refer to this question: How can I acquire practical outdoor skills?

It is not a clear question; the guy is a beginner. Can we help him clarify his question and maybe point him in the right direction? Can we draw on our own experience to use imagination to figure out what he does not yet know he knows/wants/doesn't know? Can we (we as a country, not just we as a site) afford to turn away 20-year olds who are interested in the outdoors and presumably the environment? He has the right attitude and shows willingness to learn:

Sorry guys for my bad question. I am a complete noob who has no idea about any of this stuff

So it is not a clear question. The guy is a beginner. Can we help him clarify his question and maybe point him in the right direction? Instead of blowing him off? Can we (we as a country, not just we as a site) afford to antagonize 20-year olds who are interested in the outdoors and presumably the environment?
