Greetings:
These polls are
not considered scientific because no attempt is
made to control voting.
Registration is not required, since even the
same user can theoretically register under multiple
names and skew results. The database does try to
keep track of voting to prevent multiple entries
from a single user. Just emptying your cookie cache
does not let you vote again on the same poll.
Participation in the polls is pretty low when
sign-in is forced, because it seems most people
do not want to go to the trouble of registering,
and that's OK. Think of these polls as more of a
"finger in the wind" to see which way it's blowing.
An archive of the past RF Cafe Polls can be
found here:

Thanks for your participation, and be sure to
tell you friends to vote.
