Anyone else get this Robo "Poll" I just received in Northern Virginia

Fri Sep 29, 2006 at 06:19:26 PM PDT

This isn't technically a push poll but I am wondering if anyone else in Virginia has received it.  

Caller ID said this came from "S2006" at 703-961-9120.  First the robo voice identified itself as conducting a public survey and asked me if I had time for a 45 second poll on issues of the day.  It then proceeded to ask me the following very slanted questions (all Yes/No).

1.  Do you consider yourself pro-life?

[more continued]

2. Do you agree that marriage is {something I wasn't quite paying attention to} between one man and one woman?

3. When people die, all of their accumulated money and assets are taxed.  Do you support the permanent elimination of the death tax?

4. Do you support the US efforts in Iraq?

5. Would you support a tuition tax credit that allowed parents to choose the best school for their children?

6. Do you support the use of unborn fetuses in medical research?

At this point I hung up - I didn't want these freakazoids getting any more data on me.  But it occurred to me after hanging up that it would have been more useful to listen for a few more questions and hear what the message was at the end.  

But it was interesting hearing the framing of school vouchers and stem cell research.

If you got a similar poll let me know (I'm also interested if this is across all of VA or just Northern Virginia, not just in how it ends.)
