        do you ever worry about a self selection bias in your readership/poll panel?

        Yet another poll whose results are predictable for this audience. Are you fishing/hoping for larger, diverse followers?

        .@r_ganesh no I'm fishing to feed confirmation bias. Give a man fish and he'll confirm a bias for a day. Give a man a fishing poll...
