AncientHumanoid posted that we need a poll, but didn’t say for what. I want to know how many people think we need a poll (in general) given the general grumpiness on the board right now. 😃 😉 \*Mods, I believe joke threads are occasionally allowed in ATMB. If not, please close this or have me shot or something. ---
