Results: This is my latest survey (I will call it survey #10) on various subjects of interest. Trivia in other words.
Published on 10/18/2025
We get some surveys asking whether we or someone in the family has ever had - followed by a list of common and not so common ailments. I almost feel disappointed that I haven't had most of them because then I get kicked out the survey. Then I wondered "how many people actually have scurvy" or whatever it is they are looking for. The world's population is currently just over 8 Billion. Here are some obscure stats about our people.
