I am the editor of The Pigeon's Lair E'zine, Matthew A. MacDonald, and am
currently conducting a survey of all Internet users who wish to
participate, the results of which shall be made public on The Pigeon's Lair
Homepage at my earliest convenience.  I also plan to post to several key
Usenet newsgroups my findings.

Kindly take just a few minutes out of your busy day to answer at least some
of the following questions by marking an "X" beside your choice. 
Everything should be relatively self-explanatory, and all names of
individual respondants shall be witheld in the strictest confidence my
myself, and only myself.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate
to address your concerns to skippy@qeh.halifax.ns.ca.  If you do not
recieve a response to a specific question within more than eighty hours,
please try ac507@chebucto.ns.ca.

Thank you.
