Why are there always more questions than answers?

[boo-boo]

That's not strictly accurate, after all there are often several answers to a single question, but only one question for a single answer!

in a general, wordly sense or just on the answerbank?

I mean in general...

I guess it's because the more we learn, the more we realize that we know b***er all.

I don't know........why do you think that is?

[xyzzyplugh]

There are Not more questions than answers; every question has an answer, somewhere. Whether you Find the answer or not is another matter..

[Andromeda]

Erm - it is possible to have more than one question for an answer. e.g. answer is 'a cup of tea'. Question could be: "what was Arthur Dent always asking for" or "What are you drinking at the moment" etc. etc. Xyzzyplugh, I think that it is impossible to know everything - e.g. not every question has an answer due to the Uncertainty Effect. Finding the answer is also the whole point. Why conclude that a question has an answer if you never find it? Erm, I'm off to lie down now .......
