This is an official Poll
If you're not part of the solution you're just scumming up the bottom of the beaker!

At least it is a lot simpler than the encyclopediae inflicted on people by surveymonkey.
That monkey definitely needs to be euthanized.
(((Edit: when I made the comment about the monkey, I did not realize that the company's CEO has died! Sorry!)))
I voted "no" summarily against any and all meaningless and incoherently structured polls.
--except this one, since it has a point with which I can agree.

Now, a show of hands, how many voted just to steer the results the wrong way?

I love Poles and Polls too, they make people feel so good about themselves, like their opinion matters. Jim

Well, crap....I was going to do another useless poll but for my own education mainly.
I was wanting to get a feel for how much humidity (or not) people are using.
I think there was a poll a long, long time ago but that was long before heated hoses and such customization available now with the integrated heated hoses like the ResMed's ClimateLine or the PR S1 heated hose.

I do not expect to speak to a long rod like object, typically stuck in the ground. I have never had one ask me a question yet.

    Considering the many variables that need to be considered, and the individual assessment of preceived results, sounds to me as it is qualified as useless. Why not just adjust the setting up or down until you like it...

    Oh...I know all that variable preference part but what I was wanting to know was what "most" people do or use.
    I personally just wanted to have an idea how the bell curve would be bent among forum members.

    Pretty much all polls are useless anyway in terms of doing or proving anything useful. I know that but that doesn't stop me from wondering just how the bell curve would go or even if we would have a bell curve.
    Statistically...how would that curve shape out? Been curious about that for a long time and have been trying to think of suitable wording that covers all the options. It's just something that I personally would like to know more about.

    My favorite pastime in high school was ruining bell curves.
    I didn't really, but the teacher did not know enough to remove atypical results (mine)
    before scaling the Muggles.
    The Muggles were always pi$$ed.
