At one time, you could, but you no longer can. Clicking "Sign up" brings up a page which uses Facebook to authorize your usage of this site.

If you do not have a Facebook account, the only other thing you can do on the page you get when clicking sign up is to join Facebook.

I don't know if that is what the Answers.com originators intended, but that is a change that their programmers have made.

Because of that, you can no longer join answers unless/until you have a Facebook account.

Facebook is becoming a de-facto single-sign-on mechanism.

You have to be the first person to type anything, because if you aren't then you'll have to join stuff. Look at me, I'm typing right now. I didn't have to join anything.

How can someone become an Answer person without joining Facebook?

Linking your Answers account to your Facebook page is completely optional. When you sign-up, you are given two options. While you can choose to "sign up with Facebook" and use that information to access the site, this is not necessary. Rather you can create a username and password for the site, and use these to log-in when you return to the site. Facebook is simply linked to the site in order to make logging in easier, if you choose to use it.
