"Given the number of responses, though, no one can seriously question its value as a source of information on where the community is and where people believe it needs to go.”
The number of results provides no support for the scientific/research validity of the (1) method of inquiry or (2) formulation of questions. It is an incredibly short and general survey. The number of responses is directly related to the incredible amount of money spent on marketing, the number of $1 beers available, and the use of people's places of employment to push the surveys onto people, not any grass roots support from the community. No one can seriously question that Stand did not come *from* Chattanoogans, Stand was *pushed to* Chattanoogans.
Again, I am specifically calling on Stand to release the uncategorized, individual responses so that outside research can at least read the real responses and not the interpretation. I was told this would happen but the article above does not seem as this is the case.
