Since I am toying with the idea of writing a book, I thought it might be interesting to take an unofficial survey of the members of this forum. Since we all are basically in the same ship (too large a group to call it a boat) may as well compile some casual statistics. Anyone game? <BR> <BR> Please keep in mind that I do not do this for a living so some of the questions may not be worded well. I will try to make it simple, but recommend that you print the survey and simply type the question number and answer on your response. Or maybe the questionnaire can be pasted as <BR>part of your response and you can add your answers that way. Anyone who wants to add a <BR>question, feel free. If you are uncomfortable answering any of the questions, just don’t. <BR> <BR>Here goes.. <BR> <BR> 1. Betrayed person is... <BR> a. Husband <BR> b. Wife <BR> 2. Occupation of <BR> a.

Hi Lori!<P>Welcome to our forum!<P>I have noticed your posts for the last couple of days. You have my sympathy for what you have gone through. But have patience and faith because time, always brings change.<P>If you don't get many replies, you might want to check out a post called Roll Call, Who are we? It is a survey a little like what you posted, just more informal.<P>Take Care-
