No, somehow I don't think that would be such a great image for me to take
up... ;-)

42 is the answer to life the universe and everything.
It's only fitting that a big computer somewhere would come up
with this answer to describe soemone who knows all.

I don't see why some people get all offended by this. If you don't want
to answer some questions, then don't. And don't make a big stink about
it either. There are plenty of posts on this newsgroup that don't deal
with pov. I just went through 33 of them in the images newsgroup. If
you would have read the post completely he did not intend you to reply
on the newsgroup, he left an email address. And yes that IQ test was a
little off. I should go join Mensa with that IQ.

But I still don't see the logic in such a survey... if he allows you to
answer the ones you want to (yes of course they're to his email address!!!)
then I really don't see the statistical value in this...

The point is, that a survey where you can leave out any question that you
don't like is like a verbal contract: Not worth the paper it is written on.

TonyB can ask anything he likes in as many surveys as he as Bandwidth to
upload for all I care. He just has to ask himself how high the probability
is for people answering. And better don't get all offended when people make
fun of silly surveys.
Maybe I'm gonna start one of my own? Yes! Here it comes:
(Some questions are a bit personal but for statistical reasons you have to
answer them anyway, otherwise terrible things will happen...)
1) Have you ever posted a survey of any kind?
[ ] not over my dead uncle's dog's flee-ridden body!
[ ] it's my usual pastime
2) Have you ever cursed when POV quite parsing with a syntax error?
[ ] not me! O:-)
[ ] only in a language nobody else understands
[ ] yes, but I limited myself to ugly POV-Script terms
3) Have you ever peed in the shower?
[ ] no sir!
[ ] only if i'm alone
[ ] is there another way?
Please mail your answers within 23 minutes (otherwise, I repeat: terrible
things!) to the following address ire### [at] dont care.
Thanks for your participation!
Johannes.

Seeing as I didn't email (must have missed that part) the other I'll do
the same here.

[X] none of the above (other answers are no and yes, so this is
maybe)

The cynic in me pondered whether high scores might well increase the chances
of an individual parting with $9.99 at the end of the test?
Though, perhaps we are all geniuses after all.
