I hate people/organizations that do that sort of thing and manipulate stats and polls to show exactly what it is that they want them to but then fail to own up to it when called on it. Can't they see how it hurts their argument? It means they are either a flat out liar for not acknowledging it, or they are fraking stupid for not seeing that they did it. Of course I guess it only hurts them with the people that pay enough attention and not let themselves be led about by the nose.

I agree!! The first thing that came to my mind when I read the 420,000 figure was Captain Kirk and starship full of tribbles.
