NMBCU@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU (10/19/89)
Well, here it is, as promised, the results of the name survey that I took. At first, I was surprised at the low response, but then I realized it was probably due (but not necessarily), to the heated debate that has been going on. My name survey poll probably went unnoticed under all the articles of discussion. Anyway, as promised here are the results. It may be of interest to note that some of those who voted for sci.* and who stated thier reasons as to why, did not say that they were entirely against rec.*, but most of those that voted for rec.* and who stated thier reasons as to why, did say that they would vote against sci.*. To all the participants, I thank you. ****** Results of Name Survey ****** Name Votes Received **** ************** rec.aquarium 5 sci.aquarium 0 rec.pets.aquarium 0 rec.aquaria 11 sci.aquaria 16 rec.pets.aquaria 0 rec.fish 1 sci.fish 0 rec.pets.fish 0 Others: rec.aquariums 1 Votes for rec.aquarium Total number of votes = 5 ********************** Ken A.

That kills it right? Less than 100 yes votes for all names combined? Can we stop now? -- bill davidsen (davidsen@crdos1.crd.GE.COM -or- uunet!crdgw1!crdos1!davidsen) "The world is filled with fools.
