Title: paid focus group
Post by: bigdaub on January 05, 2005, 10:02:27 PM
what's up good people of the board,

sorry to post a semi-spam (i don't think it is since i'm not trying to sell you something that will enlarge your member or refinance your home), but i want to get the word out:  i'll be hosting a focus group for a motorcycle electronic product in los angeles.  if you've seen my posts before you'll probably have a good idea what it is.  it'll be on saturday january 29th, and you'll be compensated with $25 cash.

if you are at all interested, you can find out for more info and sign up at:

please feel free to spread the word to other riders.

happy riding.

would you mind telling us what you'll be testing or is that confidential?

They want you to sign a confidentiality agreement.  I wonder what the Sooper Secret "electronic product" is...Maybe it's heated foot pegs..

jet,

it's actually passenger hand grip warmer.  no, sorry, but if i tell you what it is i'll have to kill you.  i'll give you a hint: it has something to do with police detection.

foot peg warmer... hmm, i think there may be a market for that!

An airborne radar countermeasure is to release chaff. I wonder if dropping boxes of donuts(chaff) might foil a police chase? Has anyone tried this? Will they continue the chase or stop for the donuts? :dunno:

ummm...no. cops will have no trouble finding the truck. you might use it as a decoy at the scene of crime.
