Q1/2000 Setting up SERIES site - "Polls for _this_?? Come on.."
Last week: "Hm.. It would be cool to have a poll about <some stuff> on
cons.org.."
*CLICK*!!
Why not just use some (maybe empty) SourceForge project for this?
Poll admin volunteers?

Good question. I suppose that just because someone subscribes to
this newsgroup they might not call themselves "members" of it.
Anyway, here's an example reply for myself.
Algebra/Trig/Calculus 1
Maximizing AutoLISP
Knuth, Vol 1
Visual Basic Black Book
Some superficial C++, a long time ago
Nominal Pascal and Delphi, also a while back
More recently, the Visual Lisp PDF and on-line help
The Next World War (by James Adams)
The Code Book (history of cryptography)
ANSI Common Lisp (by Paul Graham)
Art of the Meta-Obect Protocol
This newsgroup
95% of my programming career has been as a detailer.
I wrote AutoLISP programs in order to get drawings onto
the shop floor, fabricated, and erected. Those programs
were short-term solutions that got the job done. But I
realized I needed a long-term solution, something that
was object-oriented and able to evolve... hopefully in a
language similar to what I was used to... Hence CLOS.
Visual Lisp is extremely powerful. I started out with the
original "Vital Lisp" by Basis Software. Autodesk acquired
the Lisp - to - Object-ARX "compiler". And that is my primary
home... Until, perhaps, I am a proficient CLOS programmer.

I expect that members of this group are finite, but not Abelian...

I am not a Church numeral!
I am a free variable!

What *I* want to know: Is group membership a fuzzy set?

Then how do they get to work every day?

Ah. That probably means that the group is limited to one, so that all
you have is
(car group)
and no
(cdr group).
They get to work by (car group), of course.
