Since the academic value of any such research will approximate closely
to zero, since you can have no idea who is responding, how frequently,
or how truthfully, we must assume you are stupid or spamming.

Somehow I doubt many people want another untrustworthy screensaver.
Maybe 10 years ago. Your offer of an unsafe file type only inspires
mistrust.

I'm waiting for someone, so I did it. Some of your questions lack the
necessary responses, such as 'dont know', 'other response' and some
seem biased, esp the qs about H2 fuel.

And one section seems naive. I quote:

1.3 When comparing international and national standards, international
standards a
more safe
less safe
no response

I only completed it because I'm sat here wating, in any other
circumstances I'd have closed it after 1 or 2 pages. Links at the end
to topics discussed would be more motivating than a .scr.
