I was offered a survey today about entertainment. The first question was about the state that I live in. I could tell that it was a particularly important screening question because it went to lengths in its wording to make it seem unimportant (just as questions about occupation uses wording like "we are often searching for people who work in particular occupations ...").

As I recall the screen question about where I live was worded something like, "Select the state that you live in so that we can give you relevant questions." I truthfully selected Utah, and was immediately told that my presence was no longer needed. That is the first time that I failed screening questions that quickly, I believe.

Come on, Utah has great entertainment options. It makes me wonder -- what type of entertainment was the survey about? Strip clubs???
