This is a question that was raised on one of my lists, can anyone tell
me the answer? The topic was brought up when somebody who was not on
my list (a list for runners) wanted to survey the list about health
preferences and habits and sell the information to marketing companies
to try and raise money to help their grad students!!! I didn't think it
was a good idea...
