That said, and even though it would by definition water down my vote, I am absolutely in favor of extending the voting a day or (perhaps more fairly) two days given this confusion.

I have made the suggestion to the powers that be.

Doing some reading, however, the consensus on the issue is that there is no consensus on the issue.

Gee. Thanks guys. Good job on that standardization thing.

Ironically, I program surveys for (a good part of) my living, and it's precisely to avoid this sort of confusion that I always program surveys to close at 11:59 PM. That said, 12 midnight in my world does mean 24:00, not 00.00.

My apologies for the confusion.

We WILL re-open this survey for a short time, unless there's some glitch I'm not aware of that will prevent that.

I can't guarantee that we can re-open the survey for more than a single 24-hour period because of the pressure on us imposed by the PR schedule.

PLEASE check back her later on Sunday evening or perhaps Monday about 10 am Pacific (we should definitely have someone on duty then to fix this).

Again, we are so sorry for the mix-up.

The survey is open now and will remain open until Monday (tomorrow) at midnight PST (3am Tuesday EST).

Thanks, Greg & Anna. (Bumping this to maximize exposure on Monday.)

There are still four hours left, plenty of time to take the poll!
