Subject: Update on The Astro Poll



New poll: Should Pluto have been declassified as a planet?

Thanks for bearing with me while I try to get this poll thing optimized.

The first server only had a results retention period of 24 hours.

The second server went out of business less than 24 hours after I put up
three questions using their poll application.

The present one seems stable, but it is ad-supported (that is the only way
I get it for free). I could pay 8 to 10 bucks a month for a poll with no
ads but would be a waste a money. The only place they appear is on the
"results" page and though they aren't overwhelming, they are ads.

Also, one question at a time is all I am going to have up and now my
present plans are to let that question run for a week.

If you would like to submit a future poll question for The Astro Poll, then
email the question along with its responses to me using the link which
appears in the disclaimer text under The Astro Post logo at the top of the
page.
