Can you separate Yahoo Mail from Yahoo Answers?

I've had my Yahoo since about 1997 or so. I suppose I may have drifted into the Yahoo Answers community around 2003. Now I want to separate the two because I'm frankly bored with Y!A.

Is there a way to separate these two, or should I just shut down both?

    Shutting them down is up to you, but they are linked and you can not separate them. Better is just to blank out your YA profile and change the name to John Doe. THat gives you the same thing as deleting them. Your Q&As stay even if deleted.

    No, you can't.
