Please fill out this survey for my class project!

[Steve SFM]

This is a survey I'm doing for school. It's fun, it only takes a couple of minutes, and it helps our lovely class project!

Also, of course, if you want to talk about the stuff this brings up, that might be fun, too. A person who took the survey told me a name for spending money to make one feel better: "retail therapy". I love that!

If you want your responses to be more private, you can PM them to me. In any case, needless to say, your answers won't be indentified by name when we compile the survey....assuming that I know your real name in the first place.

Thanks!
