Trimming off the rest of this post is unnecessary.

I will guarantee anonymity except in cases of blatant abuse.
I will achieve anonymity by tallying the results in
uncorrelated tabulations and then deleting the emails.
(I know this loses interesting correlation data, but if
resondents want anonymity it's hard to avoid.)
I know that this anonymity promise depends on trust and that
you have no particular reason to trust me. Someday, I hope.
I will post results Saturday.

vehicles zoomed by at crazy speeds. There was the con-
tinual squeal of tires and the smell of burning rubber.
I walked on. At last I saw before me the sign "Seamen's
Hostel," and I gratefully turned in at the door. "Sign,"
said a cold, impersonal voice. Carefully I completed the
form thrust roughly at me, and handed it back with a
"thank you". "Don't thank me," said the cold voice, "I am
not doing you any favor, this is my job." I stood waiting.
"Well, what is it?" said the voice. "Room three-oh-three,
it said so on the form and on the key tag."
I turned away. How could one argue with a human auto-
maton. I walked over to a man, obviously a sailor, sitting
in a chair looking at a man's magazine. "We guys sure get
in Jenny's hair," he said before I could speak. "What is
your room number?"
"Three-oh-three," I answered miserably. "My first time
here."
"Three floors up," he said. "It'll be the third room to
starboard." Thanking him, I walked over to a door marked
"Elevator." "Go and press the button," said the man in
the chair. I did so, and after some moments the door was
flung open, and a Negro boy beckoned me in. "Number?"
he asked.
"Three-oh-three," I replied. He pressed a button and
