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.

embroilment. Polite messages of undying friendship, and
insincere offers of "protection" cross the Sacred Himalayas
from the heads of the leading nations of the world.
Into such an atmosphere of trouble and unrest I was
born. As Grandmother Rampa so truly said, I was born
to trouble and have been in trouble ever since, and hardly
any of it of my own making! The Seers and Sooth-Sayers
were loud in their praise of "the boy's" inborn gifts of
clairvoyance and telepathy. "An exalted ego," said one.
"Destined to leave his name in history," said another. "A
Great Light to our Cause," said a third. And I, at that
