I attended a conference once, where the audience had devices that enable each person in attendance to answer questions.

Within a minute, the answers were then shown on a large screen.

In response to the question: "Have you ever driven more than 30 miles per hour above the posted speed limit?", 75% voted "Yes".

The presenter accused the other 25% of lying.

I'm curious as to how folks will vote on the question in this poll.

They're called ARS questions (Audience Response System). They're used in conferences everywhere. I've written a million of them for medical conferences (for those who don't know, I edit medical content for a living) and travel 2-3 times a year (maybe more at this new gig) to conferences that utilize ARS to gauge consensus re what medical thought leaders think about x, y, and z.

Seems to me we should have added the category "horse and buggy" for Oldtimer and IC59...

IChoops.....You would have went well back in those days when Vaudeville was in its hey day....You would have been a star at the Palace Theatre where Edgar Bergin could have used you if anything happened to Charlie McCarthy.
