Well, the data is in for the first FSRI poll ever conducted. The numbers have been assembled, shuffled, tabulated and then analyzed, and it is our hope that results amaze you as much as they did everyone here at the FSRI.
Before we had any idea of what our poll would consist of we had to ask ourselves one question: "Why place a poll on this blog, and what will this poll tell us about ourselves (and others)?" With the help of a roomful of FSRI scientists we carefully worded the poll, eliminated any inherent bias and formed hypotheses on the potential results.
After the last numbers were crunched by our super-computers a collective gasp was heard throughout the halls of the FSRI Blogging Division. The Results were staggering:
1. The FSRI has greater name recognition than either IBM, Microsoft or Google.
2. People LOVE the FSRI!
3. People would work for nearly nothing at the FSRI before working under competitive salary schedules at other corporate technology giants.
4. The FSRI has street cred.
5. When it comes down to it, the FSRI can "walk the talk" - no doubt about it.
It's clear ...because polls don't lie, that the FSRI has a greater standing in popular opinion than others might have at fist imagined. How we at the FSRI process this good news is the subject for months of work ahead, in the meantime, thanks go out to everyone who participated in this poll and thanks for the official permission given by our poll's corporate co-participants: IBM, Microsoft and Google.
What poll would you like to see the FSRI conduct next!?
thanks,
KWA
(A note on this poll: We ran into several "technical" difficulties during the conducting of this poll, one of which might remain apparent. Only seven votes were recorded on the "official" tally, whereas ten were openly recorded in specified categories. As hard as our FSRI polling team worked to correct this, we were still unable to eliminate this glitch in the final product. This, however, should in no way be construed as affecting or tainting the final conclusions reached here.)

Of course people like the FRSI ... er ... FSIR ... um ... FRIS ... damn! ... I'll get this yet ... the FSRI.
How can they not? It's the most easily recognizable brand in the solar system. Maybe even beyond the solar system. Or something.
Let's be realistic here, Dan. "Beyond the solar system" ...probably not. Within, yes, without question.
