Although I'm completely new here, I did answer your questions. I did so, because - in comparison to another forum I'm a member of - I instantly picked up a very nice and positive vibe... (and of course, I just wanted to help you by contributing some data :) )

Hi Caroline, thank you for taking part, it's interesting that you have so quickly picked up a "positive vibe" from the members here. This is exactly the "secret ingredient" I am trying to discover with this survey...what combination of things creates this positive environment?
Take care,
Maggie

I just participated and answered the questions, a nice way to put in words what this Forum means to me. Although I don't post very often, I visit it frequently, and if and when I decide to post questions and remarks the reactions are positive. For me the Forum is a living everyday example of Cohenesque gentleness, knowledge, kindness, humour, criticism, reflection, often leading to a smile and an different way of looking at things.

Hi everybody,
Thanks so much for the recent surge of responses. It's very close...I need about 25 more to resolve the model, and it looks like it's headed that way in the next few days. I can't tell you how grateful I am to have your help. Research like this relies on the kindness of strangers to a great extent, but I feel I am starting to get to know some of you through reading your posts (here and on other threads).

Good evening, everybody,
Just wanted to provide you with an update...I'm about 20 responses away from being able to run this model. There's been a terrific response from people on this forum; I also appreciate the comments you have been writing in the survey, as they add a lot of detail to how you feel about being part of this community.
Hope you're having a good long weekend,
Maggie

Maggie, I've completed the survey last year already; it was good to realize how exceptional the Forum is (among other things: transparency, no advertisements - thanks Jarkko).
I hope you will get the desired/needed 100+ answers soon, maybe to repeat the link to the survey can be of some help?
