I am not advocating more rules or regs or another moderator to act as a babysister or anything else.

Consider this scenario (because this is what immediately ran through my mind): The board decides to stand behind some form of legislation related to our hobby. A petition is put together, we as individuals unite, sign it and send it off. Or a form letter is put together and we each send copies to our local representative. Hundreds of letter start landing the mailboxes of these representatives, maybe the website is signature of the letter. ONE of the reps decides to check out the site, get a feel for who he/she is dealing with. And on the main page of the website is the poll asking you is your favorite alcoholic drink. Do you think the credibility of the board would be strengthed or weakend by such an occurence? Or possibly a sponsor is condsidering contacting the board about sponsorship, so the potential sponsor checks in and sees that? Maybe it's laughed at and not given a second look, maybe not?
