Hi Band on the Run, yes - it's been pointed out before that any survey hosted on the web will naturally be frequented more often by disgruntled Witnesses and former Witnesses than hardcore "the internet is from Satan" Witnesses. So far, the voting is reflecting this. However, (1) the internet is the only realistic means of making the survey freely available to everyone, thereby guaranteeing all Witnesses and former Witnesses a voice, and (2) hardcore loyalist Witnesses are in NO way barred from entering the Survey and expressing their pro-WT views. In fact, the more the merrier. I want this Survey to be as reflective as possible of what the mood is among ALL Witnesses, regardless of their feelings. At the end of the day, the views of a disgruntled baptized Witness are just as valid as the views of a hardcore loyalist Witness. Or, as they say in the sporting world - "you've got to be in it to win it".
ShirleyW - yes, I was originally intending to have the results hand delivered to bethel. However, as many pointed out, this alone would be no guarantee that the Governing Body would condescend to read our findings. It seems better to publish the results on our website for the whole world to see, and let them come to us!

Thanks Nobleheart, I'm so happy that you persisted with taking the survey despite some initial technical difficulties. I also appreciate your words of support. It will be interesting to see what becomes of the survey project in the long-term.
