So, I've started to look at the poll results from last week and it's confirming some of my suspicions, even though the sample really is too small to be of that much significance. That being said, I guess I should at some point outline what my theory was and explain the results in relation to that.

Not today, though.

What I will say is that so far, having looked at the results of the "heightened response" half of the poll there are some clear trends. Non-writers/poets seem to have less sensitivity to most of the senses except for taste. The sense that was heightened in nearly everyone who took the poll was sound: am I surprised? I can't say that I am. This result may be negligible though because it's probably just that my flist likes music. That being said, in terms of percentages, the people who were both poets and writers were more sensitive to sounds, overall, than people who were just writers (and also, more so than non-writers).

Can you see where I'm going with this? There'll be more results later in the week, with graphs, too! *geekgasm*

delga: ([CI] No.Bobby.Don't.Touch)

I'm doing my essay; seriously, I am. All my stuff is in my flatmate's room. I am sitting on her bed, she is sitting at her desk; we are being productive, in silence. Except I got a little distracted by a strange line of thought. Ergo, poll.

Amusingly, the keywords that accompany this icon are "No Bobby, don't touch". Back to the essay now. This is a little infuriating because I don't really know what I'm talking about (even though I've been to every freaking seminar and lecture, and I've done all the reading and even the extra reading). I'm going to go for a different style this time around. Hopefully that will yield results. Oh, pimp the poll, please.

ETA: The last question is formatted wrong. You can choose more than one option. Please answer in comments (screened). Rarr.
