      Answers inserted below for UC Berkeley this time.<br>
      The number and range of these informal surveys is growing.<br>
      <br>
      I propose/will investigate a UGIM website hosting 2-4 key topics <br>
      where results can be consolidated then reviewed at any time.<br>
      Goal is to decrease network traffic a bit by pulling out the
      recurring items;<br>
      I do not mean to discourage discussion of these critical topics.<br>
