As someone who has written test banks and surveys -- that survey was
horrible and biased. However, it is nearly impossible to write a survey
that is balanced and without bias of some kind. People's opinions are
complex, and after you ask them one question you have influenced every
answer after that. :)
There's a whole profession dedicated to this sort of thing...
Not defending anyone, just putting it out there for those on both sides of
this discussion.
Everyone, I have sent my comments to the BOD, have you?
Thanks,
Maerwynn
