Whenever I ask this question, 9 out of 10 get it wrong.
" Does Christmas Day and New Year's Day fall in the same year?"
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

Sorry, I couldn't access the forum for about an hour so the poll wasn't placed (and yet for some reason the thread was posted anyway), now it is - please answer it!
Also, I'll give the correct answer or answers later.

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK "That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
Damn. Can't vote now.

It doesn't.
