Cool. Any progress on getting me them polling rights? If not, would you be OK with posting the poll threads when the time comes?
If you don't have polling rights by the time we need to do the poll threads, I'll totally add polls to them for you.
I’ve often wondered what kind of polls I’d create if I had polling rights.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
