Okay all you naysayers. I too agree with your analysis of polling in general. However, I see some hope in this poll. I can imagine the percentages of folks who scoff at alternative energy sources, and more efficient energy sources, being much higher in the past, and I believe there may be some movement in a positive direction that is reflected in the poll.

So I'm going to hold out some hope that there is a subtle, but perceptible, shift in the attitudes of at least some of the general population, when it comes to our dependency on oil and the pursuit of alternate strategies to overcome this.
