2002 Infoshop Survey

Infoshop.org is conducting a big online survey of our visitors and the anarchist movement. We hope that this survey will help the anarchist movement better understand itself. We at Infoshop.org are also curious about who visits this website. Please take a few minutes to fill out this survey. We don't have any fancy programming that will show you the results after you fill this out, but we will post the results of the surveys in late January 2003 or early February. Thank you for participating!
