I've been known to do that!.....and my reasoning was to try to gain as much info as possible. For example, I was looking for a painter/artist in another area, and didn't know which group might have the person who could offer the info I needed. I call it my "shotgun method" of problem solving. :-)

I don't expect everyone to respond though....and like you, I don't post if I have nothing to add to an earlier answer.
