That's a good point, I just thought it would be nice to spot them; which would be easy if they answer "I hate it". But also, if there's an extreme positive (completely ecstatic) I thought there should be an extreme negative, just in case. Probably not important at all. Cheers. --=20 =46elipe Contreras
