Well, if this is the labor day weekend, this must be the comics buying: entertainment vs finance poll. In the original article, I asked you to answer the following: > I buy comics > > a) Almost completely for entertainment value, and hardly for > financial reasons at all (resale value, etc.). > > b) More for entertainment value than for financial reasons. > > c) Equally for entertainment value and financial reasons. > > d) More for financial reasons than entertainment value. > > e) Almost completely for financial reasons, and hardly for > entertainment value at all. > Of the 39 answers (including mine) I recieved: 56.41% of those responding voted (a). 41.03% of those responding voted (b). 2.56% of those responding voted (c). No votes for (d) or (e), so the truly mercantile don't inhabit this newsgroup... The answers I got were extremely enjoyable reading -- nice to know I'm not the *only* one to use the excuse of financial gain to pacify Mom! Bless her, she still thinks I could cash in a few for a quick gold ingot any time I felt like it.... Thanks to all who responded! "You... VILLAIN, you."
