History Survey

[kingandy]

Ah! Here are (some of) the stats from that crazy history survey that I mentioned a few days back, courtesy of those nice people at the Paggalog.

Fictional events that we believe did take place
War of the Worlds , Martian invasion - 6 per cent
Battle of Helms Deep , Rings Trilogy - The Two Towers - 3 per cent
Battle of Endor , The Return of the Jedi - 2 per cent
Planet of the Apes , the apes rule Earth - 1 per cent
Battlestar Galactica , the defeat of humanity by cyborgs - 1 per cent

The thought occurs that that particular 1% may well have been extracting the Michael.

Just read the article and I now wish to cull the moronic element of society. Harsh? Maybe, but I don't care.

Is it not likely that they just surveyed 100 random people on high street somewhere and they pissed about?

I know from previous fun with Market Research that unless it's one of the bigger companies doing it, the survey is usually contaminated and bollocks.
