Usually, if I am getting questions on something I just covered, I know I have not met the needs of our visitors.
That said, some people grasp concepts faster than others.

I went on a tour of the National Weather Service in Norman, OK yesterday. It was a group of all retired people (except me) and the lady doing the tour was stumped on a few occasions on questions someone from the group asked. She said no one had asked that before. The great part, she could ask one of the pros there and they had the answer. One question was who writes the software for the computer models for weather that the TV stations use to make the forecasts for the week.
It was a fun tour of an interesting place.
