It has been said that everyone on the planet knows someone,
who knows someone, who knows someone . . ., so that if this
is taken out to the sixth degree, everyone on the planet knows
everyone else throu no more than six contacts.  Maybe this is 
true, maybe not.

I'm conducting a survey to collect data for my thesis.  I've
already sent out 500 snail-mail surveys, and have only received
35 responses.  Over 50 of the businesses have closed, and
another 60 told me they don't have servers.  I need a few
hundred more responses, and am fairly short on funds as each
survey costs $1.02 to print and mail out.

To the point: If any of you are systems administrators, or
know anyone who is, please ask them on my behalf to take the
survey, available from the link below.

If the 6th degree thing is true, and everyone sends my plea
to everyone they know, after just six generations of e-mail
forwarding, every system administrator in the world will be 
exposed to my request.  (Somehow I don't think this is a 
realistic expectation ;) .)

Please do not post this in any newsgroup or on a mailing list
that would not appreciate this request.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.  Many thanks for those 
of you who have already help in my endeavor.
