I participate in Harris surveys and got one today that is really interesting.

They had a survey about Oklahoma City. The survey wanted to know opinions on Oklahoma Sooners football and basketball, Oklahoma RedHawks (I will comment on that one shortly), Oklahoma City Blazers, Frontier City, the State Fair, and Bricktown.

I rated Oklahoma University marginal (opinion, which is what they wanted), Blazers good, but in need of improvement, Bricktown very high, but not the highest in all areas, Frontier City and the State Fair very low, infact, quite poor.

The RedHawks was a different story. They asked about the Oklahoma RedHwaks which they said was a AA basketball team. I told them I had never heard of them... Which is true. I have never heard of the RedHawks basketball team. I wrote them an email telling them they had made a serious mistake and told them the team was NOT a basketball team, but was one of the premier baseball teams in the pacific coast league.

They also asked about corproate sponsorship with beverages. I answered the best I could on those.

Oklahoma City featured by Harris, a major pollster. That is really a compliment to our city.

By the way. In case you are curious. Harris pays me for the survey. Not cash. Gift award after a set number of points. I am about to score an LCD television from it.
