>I have a list with 75,000 subscribers.  I would like to send a survey out to
a random sample of the list.  Is there an easy way to do this?

I guess it depends on what your definition of "easy" is.
Off hand, I would say that you could use the output file
from a "get listname (nolock" command. Write a Perl or other
script to randomly select from the resulting records, then
add those records (subscriptions) to another "survey" list.
