text: Another reason for talking to a lot of people for something is to get ideas. Businesses do this all the time to invent new products. A bunch of people may get together and decide they wanted to make a new brand of car. Instead of one person thinking about the idea, everybody in the business may suggest something like what to call the car,how wide the car should be,how many they should make, or where they should sell the new car. The more brains and perspectives you have, the more you can accomplish.
