Is Fluther loosing it's greatness and turning into just another Q & A site?

another rant/question
Since I joined the quality of questions have taken a massive nose dive (worse than the US economy) The Google questions are on the rise, and now more and more “Do I really have to think for myself?”(eg: Where in my area can I buy paper?, (I haven’t looked anywere and I still can’t find it) (how much will the paper cost) (will I get change back) questions are popping up, and flagging questions is becoming less and less effective….
Can we do something now to save Fluther and restore it to it’s previous glory, or will we wait too long and watch Fluther’s infection cause a slow painful death?
