My thought was that you have ommitted some of your finds from the other 
queries so they get added in when you merge the files since they are not 
duplicate.  I've found a few other threads looking at this problem.  I usually 
cache alone and c:geo hides my finds, and when I'm in an area I try and clean 
it out.  Have you asked this on the CCC forum
