| 21 | Like it or not, if you can't speak English in the US, you're pretty much reamed in many different ways. I do think that bi-lingual education is a good idea, though, as long as it's really _bi_lingual, and not just a token Spanish course for English-speakers or a token English course for Spanish-speakers. | California just passed a controversial referendum to end bi-lingual education and replace it with a one year immersion course in english. How would you have voted? |
| 22 | The seekrit Jer's Birthday Present list sent me. 8) | Survey Central - I originally found out about it and started using it because: |
| 23 | While I certainly support it, I really don't want to do it, thanks all the same. 8) | 20/20 had a report on human guinea pigs, those who take pay to test new medicines or take part in scientific studies. Would you choose to be a human guinea pig? |
| 24 | In our society, money certainly helps. | Does money = power & freedom? |
| 25 | It depends very very much on what I'm doing. If I'm running a server of some kind, I prefer Unix, and thus a command line. In fact, I tend to avoid X when playing with our unix boxes here. When I'm at home, though, I mostly play games and music on the computer, and although I'd played with command-line-based music software (like Csound), it's, um, not exactly as responsive as just hitting "record" and playing the keyboards. Oh, and just to be smug-- I only would spend money on Macintoshes. (Intel-based machines I'd expect to be geven away for free or tossed out.) | If you are given a choice, do you prefer a Graphical User Interface (i.e. Windows) or a command line (i.e. DOS)? |
| 26 | Day-old pizza is okay by me, since I never get meat on it. And I had a bad experience last night with milk that had expired the day before. It was, um, bad. | How "old" is "old food"? |
| 27 | I actually had to use gopher to find some things recently. It was pretty neat. Do people still use it much? Lisa: are telnet and FTP no longer useful? Hm, I'll have to change my gweeping habits. | In the last year, have you used the following Internet/Network Utilities (not including the use of such things via a Web browser)? |
| 28 | It depends on what's there and how much I like each thing. Sometimes I'll eat everything but one thing and save that for last, so I can savor it, but sometimes I'll eat random bits of whatever's there. Usually, though, I don't have several different foods from which to choose, so it's moot. | When eating a plate of food with several different foods on it, what order do you generally eat things? |
| 29 | I try not to be mean, but I can be. Usually I'm snappy at people I don't like. Although is is really meanness if they deserve it? | How mean are you? |
| 30 | Assuming it's random, always go for the 50/50 chance. But if it's a test of wits and something I was good at, I'd probably go for it. | You are given $1,000 -- no strings attached. You have the option of keeping this money, or of returning it and trying for $100,000. (If you try for the $100,000 and fail, you receive nothing.) |
