Just to clarify two points on Chris Tilbury's objection to random sample single questions. 1. I am talking about a very small proportion, so that on average any reader would receive one question (not a long questionnaire) every 3 or 6 months. 2. Jacob Palme's work was in the Swedish Defence Organisation. They wanted to know if their e-mail system was worth the money they were paying for it (i.e., what business benefits they were receiving). ---------------------- Dr. D. R.
