A Poll

[El and Bill]

Should the Brats have a poll? Yes. No.

Yea yea!

Before we make such a heavily freighted decision we should have a thorough discussion of the philosophy and relevancy of a poll about polls. Certainly one would not want to rush hastily into, or dare I say dive, into the poll. :smile

I'm all for it but the real question is "single poll or twin poll?".

 

[goldpan]

twins have you ever seen just one poll done?

 

[starcrafttom]

only if I get to tell polish jokes! :roll:

 

[El and Bill]

"To trim or cut off the hair, wool, branches, or horns of: polled the sheep; polled the trees." - dictionary

Right, Barry - let's discuss - do you want your horns clipped off?? Not me!!
NO Polling!!

 

[Wandering Sagebrush]

How does the poll perform with permapoll attached? Any of the sample size lost or overly normalized?

 

[DaveS]

Think you folks are polling our legs :roll:

Well, sure, why not? If one isn't interested, one can read plenty of other posts...

 

[rogerbum]

I'm hoping this poll was El's idea and I'm hoping she wanted me to answer the poll. Because then I would be "For whom the El polls".

You never know for sure by whom a post by El and Bill was written because Bill always puts El first. Always. It troubled me when the old C-Dory website called them Bill and El. It just didn't seem right.

roger that was a long walk for a bad joke, but I liked it.

 

[Levitation]

Bring on the poll dancers!

Polls are excellent tools, but for discussions such as singles vs twins, a consensus of the majority might not reflect the right answer. In our distant past, people thought that the Sun orbited the Earth, Malaria was caused by swamp vapors and Elvis is really alive but was abducted by aliens. What the majority may believe does not necessarily make it true. :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[Sunbeam]

I can't decide! Maybe I should start a poll...

There is no "right" answer where opinions are involved... [Twins vs singles] but where facts rule there are right and wrong answers... [Elvis never had swamp vapors]

Polls regarding subjects such as preferred brand of outboard motor or singles vs twins end up being answered according to what the individual currently has on their vessel, as in most cases that is what the wanted in the first place. We all like to think that we've made the "best" choice. Most of us know what other folks preferences are on this site even before conducting a poll as we've most likely read their opinions on the subject previously. However, the numerical answers that are provided at the end of the poll, does reflect an accurate number of peoples preferences. (At least those that are willing to participate in the poll).
However, polls such as "How many folks on this site have a captain's license", is an accurate poll and indeed has a "right answer". (Again of those willing to participate in the poll). :lol:
