Hello all,
I did a similar survey and was interviewed by David Baker some months ago. 
Is this survey the same as the other one which was also posted here, or is 
it a new survey with new questions. Could someone please let me know so I 
don't take this survey twice. If it's new I'd love to help out.
Thanks, Leyna

Dale,

Thanks ever so much for being one of the first, and providing a very
enthusiastic response!
