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

Anthony/Steve,
Some people might take your recent statement to mean you do not want them to take the poll if they didn’t participate in the 2010 Lew survey.
I assume you mean you want everyone to take the poll but only want those that participated in the 2010 Lew survey to also write a comment that they did. Right?
John
REPLY: I’ve taken that out, we are going to do a re-booted second thread to handle that need. – Anthony

I did not see any links to Prof Lewandowsky’s poll at the time, or I would probably have participated. For example I was a very early participant in the 2010 SciAm poll, which was similarly uncontrolled. Note that SciAm had over 5000 responses.
The Lewandowsky poll seemingly was advertised in such a way as to avoid sceptics actually participating, as far as I can tell. At very least the publicity was so poor that it got very little uptake from the many readers of climate sceptic blogs…of which there are much more than of consensus blogs. That alone is curious.
