Editor's Note:
Most of our survey responders are in good spirits (at least half the time) this December, for whatever occasion you may be celebrating. To others December just
means winter -- which is why we're asking about the weather this week. Much thanks to CN of West Woodstock for this week's survey idea!
Keep your suggestions for new SNET Internet surveys coming -- share them with us at the Survey Comments feedback form.
Your comments:
"A teacher in our school just died
in a tragic car accident. As I'm shopping for my young children, I can't help but think
of her family and what they must be going through with Thanksgiving passing and
Christmas ahead. This teacher was very special to my children and to me." PT, New Milford
"I love the holidays! I love gathering with
my family, and just having good time!" CN, West Woodstock
"This is not Christ-mas. It is just a fine and dandy
way for keeping our capitalist economy going, this is about economics, not religion nor the worship of
deities. Thank God for women who buy most of this stuff, because if it were for men, nothing
would be sold and the malls would become deserts--abandoned places of commerce." LH, Windham
"Thanks for your survey topic on how people feel
this holiday season. I especially like topics such as this, which I can use in my
middle school math classroom. We can survey the class and compare our class results to
your survey results. We can make different kinds of graphs and work on important math
topics like percents. Topics of interest to kids are great." BH, New Haven
"What holiday season? I'm not celebrating anything !!" PJ, Meriden
"You left out 'BAH HUMBUG,' which would
have gotten a decent vote if given the choice!" JJ, Wolcott
"As the holidays come closer, I get more joyful and
then I get estatic." GL, Guilford
"With war looming... with the threat
of terrorist attacks... it is a time of meditation and prayer vs. materialistic frenzy." MB, Simsbury, Union City
