One of the dilemma's in my field is that old chestnut "that which can
be measured may not be valuable, and that which is valuable may not be
measurable."
The notion of measurement as FEEDBACK (as Wheatley) is key - the
measures that we are forced to use in Psychiatry are nearly always
rather crud
Thanks for this suggestion, Mans - about copying and pasting in view
mode - yes - it is a good simple fix - will try this.
I enjoyed the Wheatley article, too!

Hi Dickon, Alex and J
Sometimes I get really "manual" or practical (don't know if it's the
right english expressions I'm using?)
When I can't figure how to make a program do things I know it could if
I only had had the skills or knowledge.

Alex,
I found that article by Margaret Wheatley about measurement very
enjoyable reading. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Dickton,
RE: the capacity to date and save the results so that a score at time
A can then be compared to one done later at Time B.
I'm also interested in this: the biggest survey project I have on is
about surveying organisations. I think it could be done by adding date
data to the questions
Thanks again Alex. Will try to look at these two ways of doing

the best way to head with a view to getting as much fucntionality oput

Thanks, Alex. If I can get my head around the script I will try to
adapt your Likert scales, but I doubt I have the skills. I can feel

Dickton,
I make no claim for the questions on the questionnaire. That credit
goes to Tudor Rickards [1]. The questions are part of his "Team Factor
Inventory" for creative teams, documented in Handbook for Creative
Team Leaders [2] The TW is a work in progress for the teaching of
creativity and
That is great, Alex. The Likert scale is exactly the kind of thing I
would need to use. Your questionnaire is very thought-provoking too,
and I like the way it generates instant feedback with traffic-light
gradings!
Thanks,

Following some help from Eric Shulman, I wrote myself a routine that
collects information from an HTML form, runs it through a format
string, and places it somewhere inside of an existing tiddler.
This kind of routine could probably be modified to create a brand new
