I full agree with you sir, we are conditioned by so many factors and the fear of legal wrongdoing that we do not offer our expertise to our fellow citizens in the course of our day to day interaction! It is my experience, the times I have done so that people are truly grateful for the concern, most have been aware of the problem some did not. I hope this article, obviously from the heart, is widely read and yes we as a profession should be free to help and give an opinion or simply respond within reason to the enquires of our fellow citizens.
