I believe that the problem lies more in the lack of
membership participation in the creation of interesting
questions and answer choices.

We created the questions ourselves up until early-October
or so when the holiday season began. We attempted to change
the questions every two weeks or so.

But once we got busy taking care of our Santa duties, the
poll sort of stagnated. I made several requests for questions
and possible answers but, mostly, to no avail.

Perhaps we can get a committee of a few members to devise
questions and possible answers on a weekly basis.
