SEDS-USA Space Policy Poll

Hello there. Students for the Exploration and Development of Space
(SEDS-USA) is conducting a survey to see what students think of recent
developments in US space policy. If you could assist us by taking a
few minutes to complete the poll, we would appreciate the help. We've
had over four hundred responses so far, and we will be releasing the
results in just a week or two.

Thanks,

SEDS-USA wishes to aid in the attempt to obtain a broad understanding
of individual views on various aspects of the new exploration policy.
The NASA vision extends several decades into the future during which
time today's students will be the ones providing the work force that
will carry this vision through to completion. Because of our wide
network of students around the country SEDS-USA can provide a broad
understanding of the student's perspective on our new space vision.

What is the value of a self selecting poll?

SEDS isn't the only pro-space organization that does this.

If it says "This is not spam!", it's surely a lie.

Did someone claim otherwise?

No, it's just interesting to note that there is more than one
pro-space organization that cares more about PR than surveys that
accurately reflect the opinion of the American public. The fact that
they believe they have to be dishonest when they "sell" space is
interesting to note.

Beyond weather forecasts and satellite TV, Joe Six-pack doesn't give a
rat's ass about space.

Jeff; You are missing Rand's point. It's OK for organizations and
causes he supports to be dishonest, so long as they are dishonest in
service of whatever Grand Goal he is pushing this week.

I've no idea by what mental dysfunction you came to imagine that that
was my point.

I have something you depend on most whom engage in debate to not have.
A brain, a memory, and reading comprehension.

Unless you can be more specific, your statement remains much more
slander than debate.

What groups do you feverishly fantasize that I encourage, or even
condone, in engaging in falsehoods, and on what statements of mine do
you base such an insane assertion?
