[comp.dcom.telecom] 900-Voting

@vlsi.ll.mit.edu:black@ll-micro (10/11/89)

	If people are dumb enough to waste $1 or so for specious
voting on abortion, or whatever, that's their problem (and a LOT of
profit for the perpetrating goons!).  There's a local politically-
oriented talk show on Monday nights in Boston, which always has a call
in 95-cent question.  Last week's was: Should the speed limit be
raised to 65 MPH?  Guess what the outcome was: 91% YES.  Mass. is
basically a police state on the roads now.

On the other channel, Monday night football promotes another 95-cent
question: vote for your favorite kickoff return, etc.

No reason to be upset, these are as unscientific [non-=statistical] as
a poll can get!!
