| 41 | Weren't the two folks who checked "I am not going to answer. Sorry !!!" lying? | If you could be one of the following, which would it be ? |
| 42 | When I read "cycle of violence, war, and suffering" I got a mental image of a huge black bicycle (the old fasioned type with the huge front wheel - ala the Prisoner logo), making a horrible, finger-nails-in-chalk-amplified-to-11 noise as it slowly rolled forward, dripping with fetid, noisome rags, being furiously pedalled by a black-cloaked skeleton. And then he fell over. | Will humanity ever break out of its cycle of violence, war, and suffering? |
| 43 | Whatcha drinking topper? Can I have some? | Will humanity ever break out of its cycle of violence, war, and suffering? |
| 44 | jen, your statement applies to exactly 00% of the engineers I deal with, who are typically very concerned about protecting the data they've spent many $500/hour sessions collecting with the SEM and about a half-million $ worth of lasers. | Onto what media do you backup your computer, and how do you store it? |
| 45 | Wow! Why did so many more people than typical respond to this survey? | Which of these 20 famous books have you read? |
| 46 | Hey phi - welcome to Massachusetts, where we've just recently had a governor who admitted to smoking pot as a collegian and loved the Dead as an adult. | Do you have skeletons in your closet that would essentially make it impossible for you to achieve high public office? |
| 47 | For the last decade or so, it's been the first Friday in May, from about 6pm on. | Which day of the year do you enjoy most ? |
| 48 | I suspect that there's a combination of causes that may be behind the apparent recent warmup, Some (many?) human-centric. But your followup made it seem more like an either-or question, which I think is too simplistic. I also think calling it "global warming" is too simplistic. What's got a lot of climatologists all freaked out isn't necessarily that it's getting warmer, but that the climate is changing in ways that our current models aren't capable of predicting. We don't know what exactly is happening, only that it appears that something is. Right now, this last century, that looks like warming, but if you look on a millenial scale, it's been wicked cold over a lot of the planet and hotter than "normal" in others. It's the instability, not the up or down temperature shift that is reason to be concerned about the climate. | Do you believe that the human population of planet Earth has caused a "global warming" effect to occur? |
| 49 | phi, I don't see any comments here by steve. Care to share? Do you think we should make alcohol et al medical-use-only too? | Do you think cannabis should be made legal? |
| 50 | I think that it's hillarious that people actually think that there's any difference between someone who posts as "anonymous" and someone who posts as "DiggityDog420". Unless a participant deliberately "outs" themself (which many of us - being friends/acquaintances in the 'real' world - already have), aren't we all anonymous anyway? What possible difference should it make to 'DiggityDog420' to know that it was 'LilPuss' that dissed him about his survey, rather than 'anonymous'? I see far more comments that are deeply critical from attributed users than from 'anon's. Saying "You're stupid" as an anon hardly qualifies as a deeply hurtful comment. And I know just the fact that I *could* post an anonymous comment makes me more willing to partake in surveys about potentially dangerous topics, such as those regarding drug use, et al. **** What is the largest impediment to me in enjoying SC is the number of surveys - When I visit the site, I find that so many new surveys have been created - even if it's only been a few days - that I either get discouraged after answering a couple and leave, or I spend all afternoon at it and feel disgusted with myself - and don't go back for a couple weeks. I have to admit that although I talk the site up quite a bit to people, I always warn them that it's a huge timesink and may not be worth getting hooked on. I suspect many folks pass rather than take the chance. | What do you hate most about SC? |
