All I'm going to tell you is don't send your resume to Zogby or Rasmussen any time in the near future.
 
As suspected, this highly "scientificallike" poll is based only on personal bias, and no factual basis whatsoever, I hereby award myself a 0.

Unsubscribed and ignored.
 
I said 125 and got a 69.

An utter dislike for professional sports and alcohol hurt my score...total of 6 zeroes.
 
I scored an 85...

But it cost me 40 points because…

  • I bought my chain saw from a dealer rather than Walmart?
  • I refuse to buy a “new” vehicle, GM or otherwise?
  • I believe a 2wd pickup is pointless in snow country?
  • I follow the Vikings instead of the Falcons? (you’ve got to be kidding?)

Well anyway, you have my score… for whatever it’s worth.
 
Really? This is your quiz? Self reliance based on football teams and choice of alcohol?

How many points do I get if my station wagon thinks it's a truck and has 4wd?
 
You guys sound suprised. What did you expect with WCTV's track record. Par for the course. These threads are like the games on facebook, entertaining for a while but have no real point.

I'm eternally optimistic. Now I'm just constantly let-down.
 
If the formula is right, The overall average of all the participants' average of their individual perceived score and their actual score should be around 100.

Marc, I don't need a job with one of those polling companies. This formula came from a state of the art program devoloped and patented by a software engineer at a large midwest printing press. When you get a copy of Car and Driver or whatever you read, and someone else down the street gets the same mag, they will have different ads based on the input from this program. When they go down the press, the Mag for you and your neighbor split off different directions to have different ads before the address tags are pasted. I ran the wiring for the presses. He owed me a favor. Some people cut trees. Some people program bots.
We're just getting warmed up.
 
I'm with Steve. This is ridiculous. Getting food from the Hy-vee is better than the farmers market? Gun hunting is better than bow?(Anyone who thinks so has never had the thrill of dropping something with a bow.) Don't like GM? What, should I buy foreign? Utter waste of time.:angry:
