I find this survey utterly ridiculous. Either the survey is completely flawed or it's an outright fabrication created and circulated by people who have something to gain from making congress think people want and like spam.
Not even Superbowl commercials get that kind of return, and we love those!
I'm surprised this even got Slashdot time... I may need to cancel my subscription. I'm loosing faith.
If I see a watermark in the corner of the screen, I'm getting my money back. I hate those damn things on the TV, now I have to see it in the theatres? Let me ask this... is it REALLY a problem? How many of you DIDN'T go to see a movie last year cause you could download a crappy ass screen recording of it?
First off let me say as an adult with ADHD, and having delt with it my whole life (diagnosed at age five), it is of my opinion that there is no "cure" for ADHD as it is NOT a sickness. People with ADHD are simply wired different. I have been on everything fron Ritalin to Stattera and most meds work fine, but I can't bring myself to stay on something the rest of my life. I have found the best "cure" (if you must) is learning how to deal with it psychologically level and in my daily life. I make myself notes constantly, I inform people that I'm close to that I have the condition. I remind myself that it's a condition that can be adapted. When I was young my parents became VERY involved with everything I did at school.
My point is, kids with ADHD need attention and involvment from parents, not meds. There are a thousand books out there about how to get deal with it, and they will all tell you that it take involvment.
