      Default Polling the TTF Audience

      We, the TTF Community, represent a very wide cross-sectional slice of humanity.

      And we collectively bring a lot to bear on the problem of P, the recovery from the problem, and the education of our membership of the same.

      I believe our education could be extended if we had our own polls to illustrate our experiences and allow them to be compared to things we may read or hear about from elsewhere.

      For example:

      How old were you when you first encountered P?

      What was the medium of exchange when you first began using P?

      Near as you can tell, how many years did you use P, before starting recovery?

      I plan to crank out some polls with these same questions plus some others regarding the general attributes of our membership.

      Daniel,

      From everything I have been reading, these data polls are important and reveal the factual information that explains the impact that p in our culture and in our young adolescents, who are introduced to p in their early teens.

      Dr. Patrick Carnes talks and writes about these shocking stats on age of first intro to p, and years of usage of p. He quotes many reputable research studies on the affects of p on our culture and the resulting perceptions of women and family.

      I don't know why I'm writing this to you, I'm certain that you have read all of his books.

      I was trying to applaud your idea and your effort to establish some factual data collection for all.
