Some of the questions aren't really posed as Yes/No answers. It's a difficult thing to write a proper questionnaire that isn't going to be misleading or give ambiguous results.

S. was right to point out the mistake. I had to do a survey for 2nd yr political science honours last semester, and they'd heavily penalise you for that kind of stuff. You may also like to look at your last two questions, they may be considered leading or loaded. Maybe you'd like to reword them along the lines of 10."Is downloading free music unlawfully taking away the artist's means of income? 11. What moral implications are there with illegally downloading music? these are just suggestions off the top of my head and are by no means perfect. You just can't direct them to any given answer by "suggesting" thins in your question such a s "robbing" and "wrong". I know it seems a fair question to ask, but they jumped on us for that sort of thing.

It's really hard to write objective surveys, have you considered asking short answer quetions?

Yeah, except it's meant to mail it to ride_guy.

Basically all ride_guy has to do is paste all the answers into one text file and then search for specific answers to specific questions to create statistics - it's pretty archaic, but it works.

You can also clean it up by replacing all the ampersands with return carriages.
