I didn't mean to sound negative or give offense. But I think Efrem is exactly right -- this is like one of those political party surveys. They have slanted questions designed to produce a certain response, as in:

"Do you favor reductions to bloated federal budgets and out-of-control Congressional spending? A) Yes B) No C) Undecided"

Those surveys are thin covers for donation pitches; the actual "data" they generate is pretty useless. What is the value of this survey? I don't even think it got Flyertalker demographics right (80% men?)... which perhaps reflects that men are more likely than women to self-select themselves to answer surveys.
