I like them because not everybody wants to discuss, but they will take the time to click.

I don't mind them and respond according to my interest in the topic. It's kind of like whether or not I read the Sports section in the paper, sometimes I do, and sometimes the section goes straight into the recycling basket.

I believe most RP surveys are just like others: The survey is written in a way that supports a position, and make the opposite position seem undesirable. Like everybody else I respond based on my knowledge and/or feeling for the topic.

Poorly constructed surveys lead to faulty conclusions, especially those claiming to be doing graduate and post graduate work. It pains me to see the lack of basic understanding in the problem set by how the survey is constructed

I have belonged to associations and governments entities that periodically conducted surveys. Good questions were asked about operations, personnel performance, discipline, and an array of other pertinent topics. I'm trying really hard to remember one time that anything critical to the function of that associations or entity was positively affected by one of those surveys. So, RP, what's the purpose of these surveys? Will anything change? Will you accept constructive cristicism and do something about it?

I think the real question is... why didn't you make this in to a survey??
