Thanks to Brian for permitting me to run this survey on the LUG, and 
thanks to all who responded. I have now closed the survey; we ended up 
with about 80 responses from the LUG and about 155 from the gamers (they 
are a much larger group). This is a very nice response rate, which will 
provide my son with interesting material for his project. I will post 
the results once we have tabulated everything.
