The significance of these results should not be over estimated, however.

It should be kept in mind that the survey was conducted on the net, so
we know that `count and fold' is the technique generally followed by
most netters.  I would like to see how these figures compare with the
figures for other layers of society.  I expect that age, country of
origin, financial status, and name of brand may cause significant
variations.  (I can just see the ad on TV: "we asked 100 couples in Wawa
Ontario to use `this' brand of toilet paper for a period of three
months; after three months, 98 percent said YES!!!, they would switch
to the `count and fold' technique").
