I recall going to man a booth at a trade show, and being warned about VCs and VC-wannabes just asking a lot of questions of everybody. They aren't interested at all in your product, they're (only) interested in you as a member of the tech community.
They go around collecting data points to get a gestalt of current and future trends. I recall talking to at least two people who asked a lot of very general questions after segueing away from our product.
