In an attempt to study our industry deeper, we have decided to begin
a large on-going survey project. We will be asking a new question every week on our
homepage and the results will be readily available for all to use. With the power of
the Internet this should be very successful and extremely flexible. If there are any
Question/Answer type issues you could suggest please just let
us! Also we do not post the current responses due to security issues
during the survey. We will allow it to be posted at the end of the week!
Please Also realize even though response on these surveys has been quite good, these
are not scientific studies and just opinions of the readers of our website.
