Pole . . . WTF we talking about now?

Gatey, the poll is about giving all a say, even those who stay quiet most of the time but still read the forum, so I suppose that might be a sizeable silent group. But the comments people are willing to make do help a lot, and have to be considered as well as the raw numbers. Having worked in government for many years and dealing with lobby groups and politicians, you have to be careful not to give too much weight to the most vocal, and the quieter people more often than not have far greater votes - of which politicians are well aware (well sometimes, but only when a public backlash happens! which is far more common now than it used to be)

That's exactly the kind of question and answer I'm looking for John. Of those silent ones there will be a portion who don't care.
I have no grief about a pole, after all I've had the opportunity to consider the options and made my vote...which I for one have not chosen to reverse I might add... and I've had the chance to post comment to which I have and one would need to be dim not to see preferred direction. But as is often the way on forums many just read the page that opens on a screen and not much more.

 I just wondered how management decipher the thing? Thanks John.

I prefer doing things like this in person as you can nut things out and put different points of view much better. The national rally in March is a good chance to gets the brains trust together and go through the very things you have raised Gatey.
