    that sometimes a person asks a question here on the board that you just can't wait to reply to. No one else has answered the question so you add your reply....only to read your reply duplicated by a dozen or so other people, and you feel like an idiot?

    Don't feel like an idiot! If dozens of other people agree, you must be right! :)

    Well, I always feel like people think I didn't read the entire thread.

    Yeah, I've done that, too. It must be several people typing all at the same time.

    this is a very chatty board, not long ago someone posted a pic of a quilt asking what pattern it was, there were at least three pages of answers saying, Bow Tie; it's a Bow Tie; Yep, it's a Bow Tie, etc etc....

    It may happen with me because I don't read the threads if there are too many pages to read in the time alloted to me for playing on the computer.

    Sometimes I'll just read a page or two and make a comment if I want to - I won't read 6-7 pages just to comment afterwards.

    I just give MY opinion if I think I want to.

    Happens many times to me. It has even happened when I thought I was the first one posting. I open the window to respond, by the time I get my thoughts together and get the message typed, my almost exact words are right there three or four posts ahead of me. Feel like a fool, I do.
    I guess it just shows that many of us think alike.
