I did not NOT multipost
I posted the same question to two different news groups
Oblivously you cant't tell the difference
Obviously you don't know what multiposting is. Posting the same
question separately to two or more newsgroups *is* multiposting.
Here's my standard message on the subject of multiposting:
Please do not send the same message separately to more than one
newsgroup (called multiposting). Doing so just fragments the thread,
so someone who answers in one newsgroup doesn't always get to see
answers from others in another newsgroup. And for those who read all
the newsgroups the message is multiposted to, they see the message
multiple times instead of once (they would see it only once if you
correctly crossposted instead). This wastes everyone's time, and gets
you poorer help than you should get.
If you must send the same message to more than one newsgroup, please
do so by crossposting -- sending a single message simultaneously to
multiple newsgroups (but only to a *few* related newsgroups).

Because you MULTI-posted your SAME post and then forgot where you posted.
So how many newsgroups have you *multi*-posted so far? Looks like 3. Might
be more. Now you'll have to remember which ones they were.
