Perhaps a subject for a separate thread is the need to have respect for the Rav’s time and consider whether an issue is really an appropriate matter to take up with your local rov/posek versus simply using common sense? Most rabbonim are too polite to chastise a yid for wasting their time with really dumb question or matters that they should be able to decide for themselves. While we don’t want to discourage people from seeking guidance on substantive matters when in doubt there is a need to have respect for the Rav’s limited time and resources.
