"Please stay on the line for an important call."

Link to Pew Research Center report, "New Tricks for Old -- and New -- Dogs:
Challenges and Opportunities Facing Communications Research".

The challenges include:
1. Declining respondent cooperation (from 72% in 1979 to 60% in 1996 to 48% in 2003).
2. Growing number of wireless households. (20% of total.)
3. Young respondents disappearing from landline sample. (See 2nd graph in article.)

Survey Says

Religion a factor as to where people stand on the issues.


Link to Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life report, "In Mammon We Trust? Religions Agree Economy is Issue Number One".


Survey Says

I'm satisfied living in Middleton....but I'd actually prefer to live in Spring Green, where I'd end up being less satisfied.

That seems to be the gist of this Pew Research survey, "Suburbs Not Most Popular, But Suburbanites Most Content".

Not as green as it looks?
