[Introspective] Final results of poll on whether your parents and/or children are familiar with PSB

[Wayne Studer]

The final results are in for my poll this past week, in which I asked my 
site visitors whether their children and/or parents are familiar with the 
Pet Shop Boys. And the choice that received the most votes was:

* "Yes, and they like them, too!" selected by 43.8% of the voters.

To see the complete results, please visit my "Commentary" site at 
http://www.geowayne.com/psbhtml.htm and click the "Past Survey Results" 
button in the navigation bar.

My new poll for the week ahead is a spin-off on one that I ran just week 
before last. If you recall, I had asked my site visitors whether they would 
like for the Boys' next studio album, which they're currently working on 
with producer Andrew Dawson, to feature any collaborations with one or more 
popular hip-hop artists. A plurality of the voters, roughly 40%, said, "No, 
absolutely not!" Well, one of my longtime site visitors, Shayne, was 
wondering whether a certain hypothetical situation might make a difference 
in this outcome.

Let's say you somehow knew for sure that if the Boys were to release a 
collaboration with Kanye West (or one of the other hip-hop stars with whom 
Dawson has worked) as a single, it would hit #1 in the U.K., in the U.S., 
and/or (if you live elsewhere) your own country. How would you feel about 
it? Would you support the idea of such a collaboration if a #1 single were 
somehow guaranteed as a result? An interesting twist. So please take a 
moment to make your choice -- a simple "Yes" or "No" -- right there on my 
home page. And thanks so much to Shayne for suggesting it!

Thanks as well to everyone who voted in last week's survey! I hope you all 
have a wonderful week ahead!
