Intresting poll at <a href="http://www.slashdot.org"; target="_blank">slashdot</a>. How long till Apple goes belly up? It seems like most people think its gonna stick around a while.

    Kind of a stupid poll.



    Oh well. What really irks me are those brain numbingly trite little 'yes/no' polls on CNN etc.



    With questions like "The USA, bastion of freedom and all that is Right and Good, should fight evil international terrorists. Yes or No?"



    /me shoots myself rather than answer.

    They're worse than that. They're more like "Should the UN pass a resolution condemning Michael Jackson's plastic surgery? Yes/No/Ask Linda Tripp"



    And what's worst of all are the use of these polls (they quietly mention that they are unscientific after the reports) to judge -- anything, and use them as catalysts for news "content."
