No. Don't ever ask a question in a headline again. Take a stand.

It's a poll. It has to ask a question by definition. (On the other hand, I have no idea why a poll was submitted as news.)

Pharyngulation probably.

What is the origin of that term in this context? I just spent several minutes (an eternity in Google/-pedia time) searching for definitions, and the best answer I could infer from the results was that someone named their blog after the pharyngula stage of embryonic development, and used their blog's popularity to manipulate online polls. Am I close?
