OK, the deadline is past.  I received 82 responses to my survey (out of
~375 subscribers)

***** Your age:

Low: 19;  High: 50 (3 of 'em!);  Mean: 29.4;  Median: 28

***** Mileage on your car:

Low: Less than 1000;  High: 90,000;  Mean: 21,700;  Median: 18,000
(values reported in kilometers were converted to miles)

***** Where you live (State)

 4 PA, VA
 3 MA, WA, MN, CT, IL
 2 OH, IN, MS, KY, UT
 1 GA, AZ, AL, MD, WI, WV, NJ, CO, NH, HI, DC, FL

In addition, 4 were from Canada and 1 from South Africa.

***** Your Occupation

I had to use a little judgement here trying to minimize the
classifications.  Technical occupations *dominate*.  Not everyone
anwered this question.

12 Programmer or Software Engineer
 3 Mechanical Engineer
 2 Engineer, not otherwise specified
 1 (each) Production, Electrical, Civil, Research, Geomatics
 1 Customer Support Engineer 
    for a subtotal of of 23 "engineering types" 
 
 9 Systems Administrators or Network Managers
 1 Computer Trainer/Consultant
 1 (each) Systems Technical Advisor; Telecom Analyst
 1 (each) Comp. Parts Hunter; Comp. Sales
     for a subtotal of 14 "computer people (not programmers)"

 2 Biologists
 1 (each) Chemist, Veterinarian, 
 1 (each) Research Assistant, Draftsman 
    for a subtotal of 6 "Other Technical"
    and a Grand Total of 43 "Technical" Occupations, over half the
responses!

In addition, we have

11 Students (only counted as such if nothing was else specified)
 2 (each) Sales & Marketing; Art Director; Lawyer; Finance
 1 (each) of the following:
   Bartender; Graphic Designer; Phamacist; Inventory Control;
   Banker; Logistician; Tax Manager; Product Rep; TV Producer;
   Jewler; Military; Editor, Public Relations; Journalist;
   Photo Lab Manager; Store Owner

*****

I will follow up with more survey data pertaining to Other Cars and Mods
when I have a chance to tabulate that data. 

Thanks to all the respondents!

Best,

-Uwe-
