Hello,

I am conducting research related to people's attitudes towards their
commute
to work or school. I am writing to invite you to take a web-based
survey
which will take about 20 minutes to complete. The link to the survey
is:

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=f%2ffhNEVt4UmEfKAzC4QpXA%3d%3d

and can also be found at the following MIT site:

http://mit.edu/its/

The results will contribute to my doctoral thesis at MIT. I would
greatly
appreciate it if you could take the time to fill out this survey.
Please
feel free to forward to other commuters who you know and who you think
may
be interested in participating.

Thanks, in advance, for your interest and cooperation, and please
contact me
if you have any questions.

20 minutes?! How much are you going to pay for 20 minutes of my time?

Who's paying you for the time you're reading messages here..?

And yourself, moron. My wife is completing her PhD dissertation now. Part
of it involved a survey, and it was a long, difficult struggle for her to get
enough qualified respondents. It took over a year to complete. Needless to
say, most PhD candidates haven't enough money to pay respondents.
