No. It is my contention that it is inappropriate to go shopping, particularly after having asked R' X. 
<SNIP>


BTW, I do not know how important it is to ask what HKBH's opinion is. He already taught us in His Torah lo bashamayim hi, and in the case of tanur shel achnai we learn that there may be a difference kaveyakhol, between earthly halakhah pessuqah and G"d's "intent".

Sorry for the lack of clarity, I meant the above as a thought experiment, not that the same shoel actually went to 2 poskim.

I always assumed the posek is trying to channel the ratzon hashem as he understands it.

Anyway, I think we've taken this as far as we need to on list. Thanks for the insights.
