Active Badge survey



Hi,

My name is Yong and I am a grad student at the University of Toronto. I
have a 5-question survey about a research project called "Active
Badge", and I am writing to invite you to participate in this survey.
The survey consists only 5 questions and can be found at:
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=370322043067.

The purpose of this survey is to understand people's opinion about
office/home location systems like Active Badge --- What people want and
do not want from these intelligent systems. Your participation is
greatly appreciated.

regards,
Yong

Only if they purport it to come from The Treasure of the Sierra Madre.
The line, "we don't need no stinking badges" was used in Blazing
Saddles.

That looks like it's the quote from the movie; I seem to recall having read
an excerpt of the novel that included a goodly dash of explicit profanity
within that remark . . . . .
