Poll: Audio Science Review in the World (2024)

[damirj79]

You got that right! Soča is unforgettable!
And the largest stone arch bridge damirj79 posted a picture of is actually in Solkan - now a suburb to Nova Gorica, but as a resident there I can not let it slip past.....
The hill you see behind the bridge was taller by about 20 meters before the World War 1 as it was bombarded so heavily the top was blown off. River Soča and its valley was place to the bloody "Soča front" where some 300.000 soldiers died in a few years. Bones of 100.000 soldiers lay in this monument.

That is 100%, the Solkan bridge is in - Solkan to be honest. Is that picture of the bridge yours? Kind of remembers me of the picture that one of my friends took it. I lived in Solkan also and I moved few kilometers to the east 10 years ago.

Nah, picture is not mine - although I live within 1km nearby and have plenty of photos, but all with people, so I opted for a stock one.

That’s one hell of a big yard to Mow in the Summer.

The view looks out north towards Canberra and into the Brindabella Hills which is part of the Great Dividing Range in Southern NSW. This is in the foothills of the Snowy Mountains. I swear there are days when I think I'll see the Riders of Rohan coming over those hills....

Almost 1800 Voting Participants in less than 6 days! Insane turnout for the Europeans as they are trouncing the map and eating our collective lunches. VF, this Poll has set a new participation record. Thank you all for being so kind by participate and sharing your general geographical location. Including the many strikingly beautiful pictures of your home towns and surrounding countrysides. I initially thought we would be lucky to get 1000 votes. Very happy to be proven wrong.

View from my front veranda, 15 minutes inland from Byron Bay (most eastern point of Australia and 8 hours north of Sydney). Retired here in July 2019. I can finally play my music as loud as I like. Love it!

Silicon Valley. It was called the Valley of Hearts Delight around 60 years ago, as shown below. Santa Clara was all small farms and then folks at Stanford invented the silicon chip, making this website possible as well as a couple other things. Which one do you like better?

I lived there and went to school there.

A transplant from California (and never to return!) ... but I came here (UML) to start and finish up my PhD in Biomedical Engineering this year, which I started Fall of 2017.

6 days to go before the poll ends. I don't think that we can get that much more votes at this point (you were right after all @Rick Sykora), but it would be cool if we reach 2k at the end !

At this very moment, Europe is about to lose the overall majority :

Can 50%+1 change the forum rules? or does it need 2/3?

It would put the above into perspective to know, what an average members traffic is for ASR in any month.
I mean, The number of individual members, logging in, in an average month.
If the number is much larger than 2000, then the above results don't tell much, if it is not, then it is pretty accurate.
I apologize if the point had been raised before.

 

[VintageFlanker]

If the number is much larger than 2000, then the above results don't tell much

2000 votes in a poll are perfectly valid to establish reliable statistics for a 52k group. Especially when you observe an acceptable repeatability over the previous poll (that stayed opened for more than four years).

Absolutely. Just read post #1.

Silly me. If the results are the same, then quod erat demonstrandum!
