Not to put too fine a point on it or undermine Paul's desire for people to take
the survey in order to see results, but, this isn't a small delta in perception,
either....  The overwhelming majority (more than almost 200 times as many)
people thought it was a BAD IDEA than a good one.  Decline-to-state and Web-
Browsing-End-User tied, and one more "Good idea" response was had from a
Domain-Name-Registrant for a total of 5 "Good idea" responses.

Zowie.... I think that's the most overwhelming amount of consensus I've _EVER_
seen in an internet poll/survey/vote/whatever.

Hey, Verisign lawyers, are you listening?

this is not an icann thing btw, it's just me.

Welp, it has been over a week and the results seem to have pretty much
stopped coming in.  It doesn't look like very many people think the
wildcards were a good idea, although it scored the highest among
"web-browsing end-users".


Thanks for the survey Paul!
