A big thanks to all those who chose to participate in the survey.
A total of twenty responses were received. Below are the results.
There were a few isolated cases where the answers were left blank or there
was commentary which did not indicate a clear "yes" or "no". In such
cases I did not tally in the point.

<p><font color="#000000">My primary inspiration for all of this was a local
morning talk radio program which was discussing the sources and legitimacy
of the so-called polling data that the news folks use. They always
seem to have statistics, yet if you ask around you can never find anyone
who can say they actually participated in one of these. Makes you
wonder. Anyway, perhaps this sheds a dim light on what people are
thinking about on today's hot topics. Thanks for playing!</font><font color="#000000"></font>

accompanied the responses, they were great!</font></html>
