I didn't think you came off that way at all, but there is one phrase that is also an idiom, 'to sit on', that may have been read the wrong way.

Meaning number 2 is 'To suppress, repress, stifle, or hide something.'

I think most people just thought that you meant 'If one of you out there has (sits on) some good information'.
