It would be less than useless. It would be like taking a census of the US by asking all the members of slashdot to write in with how many people they knew.

It could be difficult to eliminate these overlaps and thus the results might overstate the situation in some geographic areas. For myself, I don't plan to send in any count of shops or MIPS for my area. I do not see much point to this exercise. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
