Polls from 2000

[Guest guest]

Hi Guys,

Back in 2000, I asked all members to answer a poll. Here are the

results of that poll. I would like to ask if anyone would like to

create their own poll question. If you would like to start a poll,

and have a list of questions please send them to me at

Debgena@... . Please out POLL QUESTIONS in the subject line. I

will either incorporate your questions or run a few polls. Here is

the question and our members replies.

Question

Please answer the following questions as honestly as possible. This

will be an anonymous poll. How do you handle the fact that you will

be living the rest of your life in pain?

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are

pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different

colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box.
