Why yes, I'm actually evolved

[pbray]

I have a landline phone and live in an area that is known for its conservative politcal views. Which means that at least once a day I get a robo-telephone survey asking me for my views on gay marriage, from an organization known for cherry-picking their pool of respondents so they can report the views of the "average New Yorker."

It's the only survey I ever respond to. The writers group last night got to hear me answer the survey in which I enthusiastically disagreed with the statement that the marriage can only be between one man and one woman.

Then, after I was sure that my answer had been recorded, I expressed my contempt for the useless weasels, a la Senator Roy McDonald.

Please, New York, I know our state government is dysfunctional at the best of times, but for once do the right thing and pass the same-sex marriage act.

We are bad citizens. We hang up on "poll" calls. Even ones with humans rather than robots on the other end.

Every other time I've gotten poll calls from humans or robots, I hang up. But this one I'm answering.

Only having a cell phone, they don't call me. But I'd so give them a piece of my mind... (I've already done so via Twitter & LJ).
