We have to take some of the blame because we are so busy right now (and for the last three months) totally resdesigning our web site. Unfortunately, October 1 is our goal, and as soon as that task is finished, the holiday rush should keep us pretty busy until January. It is a daunting task to say the least and we just do not have the time to create poll questions, but it would help if there was a committee (of, say, three members) that could formulate questions AND possible answers. Then, in a free moment, we could just copy them to the poll form. - Steve (ICD/Your Move)
