um... i'm sorry if this is rude, but isn't it a little silly to be angry about asking questions of each other? it's the best way to share information that might be important about our experiences here, and to learn about each other, isn't it?

i think it's fine if you don't want to answer any questions about yourself, but i want to know everyone better, too... and, um, you won't ever know if you don't ask, right?

Asking others things as a way of getting to know people? Is that really effective?

[No way... While he wasn't shy of asking other people things back home, he preferred to see if he could locate the answer in a book or otherwise figure it out on his own first. HE MISSED OUT...]

I never thought of it that way. Maybe the most important thing to give newcomers on arrival is just a basic safety manual so they are not immediately eaten.
