The feeling is kind of like asking someone you just met at a party how much money do they earn or what disturbs them the most about their sex life. I guess my major concern is that you don't mention what the data will be used for. I think I would be more amenable to offering information if I knew what the survey was about and how the info would be used. Sorry.
