  Users need to be reminded a few things, including:

      * IT wants to help me.
      * I should keep an open mind.
      * IT is not my personal tech adviser...
      * IT people have lives and other interests.
This goes for everyone IMO. Just replace "Users" with "family and friends".

Yeah, just downloaded it.

There is a lot of fake data, or I am doing something really wrong.

If you are one of the respondents that makes $680M a year, please contact me...

Perhaps it's the fact that I have to use IE to view certain sites from work (had to vote Corporation), but the age, avg. hours, years in industry, and pre-tax income results are not showing the horizontal bar charts like the other question results.

Very interesting to see the data results, thanks!
