Thank You! Indeed, there would be NO questions left to ask on Javaranch if one had to ensure their absolute uniqueness across the web! It is quite understandable for one to ask a similar question on multiple websites, especially when on a deadline... and quite absurd to assume that every question asked on JavaRanch is answered with enough clarity and substance to satisfy the person posting the question.
Cross-posting on Javaranch is understandable not desired, but to chide someone for posting the same query elsewhere on the web is quite a stretch.
Regards,
Reuben.

I do the same thing. If I want an answer to something, I'll try a few different sites, because for the most part, they have different audiences. And I make no apologies for doing it either. The web is a resource to use. It's also arrogance on our part, to assume JavaRanch can answer all questions.
