They didn't publish the questions for this survey but I would imagine this survey did not require answer detail enough to be identifiable at any level.

Do you disagree that an anonymous survey with yes/no answer is sufficiently anonymous? Perhaps folks from Callisto can comment further.

What I'm telling you is a person running in elite circles can have reasonable concerns that it is not sufficient. I'm also telling you the VC/angel funding crowd in a specific location is likely to be a small community where most folks know each other.

Ah. So we are not talking about the same thing then.

If you look up a couple of levels, you'll see yourself specifically referring to "this survey".

Right, exactly. Are you saying "this survey" is not anonymous?

-edit- Clarification: I don't believe an anonymous survey with yes/no question is the same as a survey that ask for detailed answers that can potentially be identifiable. Hence this survey is not the same as what Doreen is alleging. (it's not the small elite circle part that I was disagreeing.)
