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.

and his hands shook with weakness and age. His faded,
ancient robe was patterned with neat stitches where he had
repaired the ravages of age and accidents.
"We saw you thrown from the boat," he said. "For long
we thought you were dead and we could not get to the
beach to make sure because of marauding bandits. At
nightfall two men of the village went out and brought you
here to me. But that was five days ago; you have been very
ill indeed. We know that you will live to journey afar and
life will be hard."
Hard! Why did everyone tell me so often that life
would be hard? Did they think I liked it? Definitely it
was hard, always had been, and I hated hardship as much
as anyone.
