UPDATE: There are so many respondents (thank you) and since it is clear that about 97% of WUWT readers hadn’t seen/participated in 2010 Lewandowsky survey, that we’ve added a second thread to get the most important part of the data.
You can still record your participation/non-participation below in the question form, but if you DID PARTICPATE in 2010 please also see this new thread:
http://wattsupwiththat.com/2012/09/14/the-lewandowsky-participation-census-re-booted/
People who previously answered that they DID participate in 2010 are encourage to drop a note in comments at that new thread.
At the suggestion of Steve McIntyre, I’m posting this request because we know that both AGW proponents and skeptics alike read WUWT daily. It therefore is the most broad reaching venue to ask this simple question:
Did you participate in the Lewandowsky conspiracy opinions survey anywhere in the year 2010 on any blog? (if you are unfamiliar with it and don’t know if you did/did not, read Lewandowsky’s paper here)
There are two steps: First I ask you to do the poll below, then leave a comment with your usual handle in the comment section signifying your answering the question.
Note that unlike the Lewandowsky poll, safeguards are in place to prevent vote stuffing.
Step 1: Answer the question below
Step2: Leave a comment in your usual handle/name below stating your answer in Step 1 (note Steve’s re-boot at the top of WUWT to leave a comment in the other thread if you did participate).
This will be a sticky top post for a few days. Please ONLY LEAVE COMMENTS ABOUT YOUR PARTICIPATION YES/NO. Most others will be deleted. Thanks for your consideration – Anthony
I’m a skeptic and I DID NOT participate in the Lewandowsky Survey in 2010
Skeptic. Didn’t participate. Having now seen the “Have you stopped beating your wife”
questions, I suppose had I seen them in 2010 I probably would have chuckled at the stupidity and clicked to something else.
Sceptic. Did not do survey.
Skeptic. Never heard of the poll until it popped up on WUWT, so did not participate in 2010.
Did fill out the poll when it was re-created by A. Scott.
Sceptic,did not participate.
Skeptic. Never heard of the poll or Lewandowsky until just recently.
I am a believer in natural variability and I was not asked to participate
I’m a skeptic and I DID NOT participate in the Lewandowsky Survey in 2010
Skeptic. Did not participate.
2. Was looking at the moon with reflector to photograph evidence of moon landing.
Skeptic did not participate or even hear about poll and wonder how many AGW religious zealots believe in the rival “alternative 3” moon landing conspiracy. If they believe in that one then they would strongly disagree with the poll’s intended moon landing conspiracy theory.
I do not believe in either of the two opposing moon landing conspiracy theories.
I did not participate in the Lewandowsky poll at any time. I am a climate skeptic, and a realist.
I am a skeptic and did NOT vote in Lewandowsky’s 2010 poll.
I DID vote in WUWT’s Replication of Lewandowsky survey
PS Voted intermediately for poorly worded questions or unfamiliar esoteric conspiracies.
I am a skeptic. Found the poll recently and it was so poorly organized, and the questions so poorly phrased, that I quit without answering them.
Skeptic, and No.
