I would love to know some of the answers to the questions. For example, I picked Asia and I clearly am in the minority about the view that there are more illiterates in Asia. Also would love to know whether there are more men than women who are illiterate.

I took the poll, it looks like they reached the goal on some of the questions but not all of them.

Maris, I posted a link in your folder that breaks it down by region and gender. It looks like ds needs 11 more participants to reach his goal of 100+ responses to each question. He was jazzed when he came home from school today and saw how busy you all had been driving up the numbers. Thanks!

My Loupup just voted. Bothers me that some people skipped those last two questions. Looks to me (as of now) that he only needs about 6 more voters--who answer every question.

You guys are awesome! Thanks to all of you (plus the lurkers at tvch) ds has a wonderful sampling of votes from people all over the US and Canada...and beyond. There were 122 votes as of this morning on some of the questions and 101 votes on that darn question 9! Thanks again for all your help!!

Kaykay and Texasdeb, you're not late at all! The goal was for ds to get the 100 required responses, but he'll gladly take as many as he can get.

I know, but I do. At least my brain thinks I do. When actually I don't. I'll stop typing now. Still interested in which way Canada does the date though - I thought they did it the other way.

In Canada, we date it the European way so May is the time it will happen for us (I guess that means we do it dd/mm/yy ). BTW, I received the following in an email today and think it is well worth sharing for anyone not lucky enough to be retired like me
Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days. But the family we left behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than into our own family, an unwise investment indeed, don't you think? FAMILY = F ather A nd M other I L ove Y ou

Any ideas on where to locate a small (maybe foot or two) angel statue, with angel carrying a puppy dog in arms? My aunt is buried in far away Maine, but I would like to have a small memorial for her here with me....she loved dogs, and this makes the most sense. I was thinking of putting it at the head of our pet cemetery, with an inscription of her spirit protecting our four footed and two footed friends.

That sounds like an excellent and thoughtful way to honor your Aunt.

Tough one Clutterfree. Here's some that I found; don't know if it's what you're looking for though. Angel Statue Another with the same figure: Angel Statues A cherub with dog (second to last picture): Cherub and dog And finally, a stained glass angel with dog (scroll to the bottom): Glass Angel and Dog ETA: I don't know if any of these are what you were looking for. Just what I was able to find on the internet.
