Not many could be bothered to learn morse code. Ba boom ching!
Hey, speakin of leaks;
How do you know when you're staying in a Arkansas hotel?
      When you call the front desk and say, "I gotta leak in my sink,"
      and the clerk replies, "Go ahead."

Well, it's the asexual organs you ACs have and you all look the same to me.

You lack a sense of humor and the ability to judge an audience, both necessary for getting laid. I pity you, you'll end up spending a lot of money.

Good Idea, we'll work with monochrome.I'll predict it'll produce a turd long before it's whittled down to 1000.

Hmmm, statistics about guns, what could possibly go wrong? Money is usually my answer. Money makes the world go round, greases the tracks for a night on the town. It picks you up when you're feeling down, when you're out, you'll wear a frown. So step right up and pick the card and lay your money down.

Your 1000 tosses would be fine in this case , if you were polling 1000 coins. Pathetically short of variables.

Trust, I don't contribute monies to disinformation factories that would result in sitting in something useless as a statistics course.

Yes you are right , random sampling has produced loads of desired results, the best money can buy.
With only 1000 samples, you can always try again in short enough time to make press, if you didn't like it the first time.

I'm sure I can trust that you believe you are right because you sat in enough classes to soak up theory about the theoretical, then they gave you a sheepskin. Happens all the time. Personally I blame those with teaching degrees who taught those who wished to teach,etc. until each iteration contaminated by culture, politics and mental health, declined the information to the poo on our plate today.

Lies, damned lies and statistics.

Statistics are barely good for anything and never cover enough criteria and variables to represent accurately, opinion.
Perhaps you should've degreed in information theory.

Sorry, I'm hungover and mean as a rattlesnake today.

Are you kidding me? You can't get from county to county, let alone state to state with any hope of finding a uniformity between them that could be construed as an average. You couldn't poll 1000 homeowners out of 750000 in a city over taxes and have it work. This is the equivalent of closing your eyes and tossing a dart over your shoulder to win the teddy bear.

Just because they offer up their cockamamie methodology, doesn't make it any the less; smoke pumped up your butt.

Interesting theory about sample size,let me make it clear for you. Take a digital picture with the same number of pixels as the adult population(we'll even narrow it down to adults) then, pick a thousand random pixels to represent the picture. Hell, I'll make it even simpler, squeeze that same picture down to 1000 pixels. Whadda ya got? Crap. What did Rationalize-Ruse produce? Crap. What happens when you digest their info? Disgusting picture isn't it? Another good reason to question everything by those professing to be experts.

OK It can't possibly cover a representative sample of them, thank you Mr.Pedantic.

Making a zip gun from plastic tubing is, however. And that's what a 3-d printed gun barrel is.

Amen! Let's just hit the reset button and settle on 4 years for Copyright and Patent. If you haven't made your money by then, get off the pot. There's a world of innovative people out there who deserve a living. I mean really, what have you done for us today? I mean besides Patent/copy troll and waste the time of the tax dollar fueled court system that could otherwise be doing something to improve the world. 4 years, no more, no less. Period.

If you ever figure out who it is, have them delete Christmas, as it is virally compromised with malware that is beginning to affect many other holidays.

1000 people could never be a good sample size. It could hardly cover all walks of life in our 50 states, let alone combinations of political, religious and cultural criteria.
Anyone with an HTML editor can claim to be some professional data gathering business. Frankly /. polls get closer to the truth of things and I wouldn't accept it either.
The only thing this unReasonable-Ruse is good for is producing media talking points from midair in order to sway public opinion in the cattle they are able to affect.
I fart in their general direction and laugh at their lame attempt at reproducing some community college level effort and trying to fob it off as genuine and scientific.
Proof that any moron can call themselves professionals, I am reminded of all the 3 stooges films in which they attempt business endeavors ending in spilled paint, foot in a bucket, BOP! OW! C'mon Moe! Woo Woo Woo Woo! Wise guy huh? I'll teach you to print guns.

You lack reading comprehension: I pointed out a jealousy over a friend (unisex) unless of course you're asexual which would make your assertion amusing.
It works on conservatives too and most religious affiliations. Nothing a savage headhunter might prize more than "turning out" a Metrosexual. Birds do it, bees do it, even educated trees do it. The Craigslist section I mentioned has something for everyone. I mean if you can't get laid there,( could be you, if you talk to others like you do here) you might as well pack it up and go do that research in the remote arctic, that you've been meaning to get around to.
