would it make any difference if i told you? : )

[shammydodger]

Sorry, Andrew, but I thought the question was screaming out for such a reply. I can't believe it took 8 hours for someone to jump in.

Alas, I can't help you with the question, but I'll be interested to find out the answer.

Have never come across a verb with that specific meaning - but am fascinated to see whether there is one.

There is no single name for the process of answering one question with another or for the person who does so. However, here's a variety of possibilities for you to consider:-
counter-question(er), quasi-answer(er), verbal tennis(-player), query logic(ian), the Socratic approach (a Socrates). Socrates used questions to force his students to seek further questions. Finally, there's aporia, which is a process in logic/rhetoric whereby a speaker reveals doubt...ie may be asking a question. Perhaps you'd care to pick one of these?
