How the Votes Have Been Cast
You've found the EastBayRag vote page. Here, you get the opportunity to let us know what you think. Each week, we will have votes on important issues. Well, probably not important issues, more like trivial things that come to mind on a Sunday morning after a belly full of beer from a Saturday night.
This week's current vote is shown above. After the votes are in, EBR will provide in depth analysis of the results so you can find out if you are running with the crowd or if you're out there on your own. You never know, you may even learn something, but that's highly unlikely. Analysis of last week's vote is shown below. If you want to see historic votes, checkout the vote archives.
Oh! And the cool thing before I forget, the graphs update as you vote ...... Wow! And what's more, the colors are allocated randomly, so each time you refresh the page, you will see different colors on the graphs. (F5 is normally the shortcut key to refresh, but may depend on your browser.) Go on .... try it.
Analysis of Last Week's Vote
The following question was presented:
An article in the news today caught my attention about Pathfinder 1 being an attempt at reviving the airship. This got me thinking as to whether I'd go on an airship or not if the option was available. I have images of the Hindenburg disaster in my mind, but I'm kind of thinking any modern airship would be using a gas less flammable than hydrogen. Still, the question remains: if there was an option to fly on an airship, would you take it?
Results:
Yes and No tied with 50% of the votes each from the following selection:
- Yes (50%)
- No (50%)
Analysis:
There’s mixed feelings on this. I actually ended up opting for yes based on the try anything once principle, but I’d probably be plopping my pants while on it.
