I thought I'd mention two previous polls that relate
to questions you asked:

> 1. Do you (the average List member) go to conferences regularly?

We asked: Have you attended a national/international
technical communication conference in the past two years?

Results:

> 4. Do you go for your interest in specific topics? Or for the networking
> opportunity? (This answer might be best given in a proportion/percentage)

We asked: What is the primary reason that you, as a
technical writer, attend conferences?

Results:

FWIW,
Deborah
