    Sometimes there is a glitch in their Internet Explorer...and they get impatient...and click that "Submit" Button repeatedly...and once their system catches up to them...it shows up multiple times...

    Other times...they do it just to annoy people....

    I think some people are trying to put the question in different categories. Some people will only answer in a certain category to get the "top contributor" under their name.

    Or maybe they didn't feel their first question was worded correctly.
