This has nothing to do with what RJ said. I was providing an example of a way to get Sanderson to talk about Asmodean without actually asking who killed him and getting a RAFO. I specifically said that a fan could "pretend to be uninformed". You know, pretend to be ignorant of Asmodean's inability to be resurrected by the DO or of anything RJ might have said or anything fans have discussed.
I think you choose a bad example then, because I doubt that BS - likely knowing the RJ answer I quoted - would let slip how and where Asmo died, thus revealing the reasons why Asmo can't be transmigrated (even if an informed fan convincingly pretends to be an uninformed reader).
If Sanderson quotes Jordan, it's usually from Jordan's notes, not from the recordings of forum posters from his public appearances. I actually used the example I provided to get Sanderson to mention the b word when talking about a potential Asmodean rebirth.
But generally I agree with you that one should try to formulate creative questions!

I wish I lived in UT. BS is doing FIVE book signings in the next two weeks in Utah.

Rather plot-related questions would be more interesting, IMO

BS likely won't answer the questions about Asmodean.

Possible, but one could try it...

Yeah, if you get creative with your questions, he gives little nuggets away.

I wonder if that means Asmodean was brought into the World of Dreams?

Did you even read what I wrote or do you keep your Slayer blinders on all the time?

Power rankings among 4 characters who are long dead? (OK one is still alive, I guess) But really?
