Homebrewing as a "Serious Leisure Pursuit"

I received this today from the AHA.

The American Homebrewers Association is assisting an Auburn University study on homebrewing as a "Serious Leisure Pursuit" in the United States.

In the interest of getting the most representative and reliable the data we can, we encourage as many homebrewers as possible to participate in the study by filling out a brief survey. Please read this informational letter pertaining to the research and if you agree to participate, you can click through to the anonymous online survey.
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=v ... mWaA_3d_3d

Your participation is entirely voluntary. Total time commitment is approximately 15 minutes and there are no known risks associated with participating in this study. The survey delivery software will not collect email or IP addresses and/or any other identification markers.

The survey site will remain open through April 30, though we would greatly appreciate it if you could complete the survey in a timely manner.

Please feel free to forward this message on to any other homebrewers you know.

Results from the study will be posted on the AHA website and to the AHA TechTalk forum once they have been compiled.

Thank you for supporting this study.

I chuckled at the question : "The place I brew is clean pleasant" or some thing like that.

When my Doctor asks if I work out I tell him Yes for 6 hours every 2 weeks sometimes every week.
