Guest guest Posted November 12, 2001 Report Share Posted November 12, 2001 xen·o·phobe (zn-fb, zn-) n. A person unduly fearful or contemptuous of that which is foreign, especially of strangers or foreign peoples. xeno·phobi·a n. xeno·phobic adj. ********************************* Okay, can someone please tell me what is so potentially exploitive about this survey? I'll grant you that out of common courtesy, this person should have given some sort of introduction, etc. However, they seem to make an effort to gather " generic " information, only asking for a first name, not asking for any " personal " information like address, phone number, age... This seems like some data gathering, not an attempt to steal your credit card number or kidnap your dog. If you want to help the guy out, fine, if you don't want to, fine as well. Posts that insinuate this is a diabolical nut case are plain old simple xenophobia. I thought " we " wanted to educate and inform, not seem like a secret society. A wise man once told me that it does not matter if you are the sole supreme expert on any subject, you are of no value if you are *gruff and abrupt* anytime someone seeks you out. Calm anyone? ************************************** First Name: Age: Height: Weight: Is your small size the effects of a disorder such as anchondrophasia?: Do you take part in any athletic activities, if so what are they?: Is their a particular type of community that you prefer to live in?
