Publication Project - Primary Research Questionnaire

Here's the list of questions I sent to all members of Bath Astronomers:

1. How long have you been observing?
2. Do you consider yourself to be an observer, an imager or both?
3. Do you have any tips for new astronomers?
4. Any good observing anecdotes?
5. How far do you have to travel for a good, dark observing site?
6. What is the furthest distance you have travelled to observe/image?
7. What got you interested in astronomy?
8. What are your favourite astronomy magazines?
9. What are your favourite astronomy websites?
10. What are your favourite astronomy books?
11. How about software? (RegiStax, Stellarium, Celestia, etc)
12. Do you believe in extraterrestrial life?

In my experience most astronomers are very logical thinkers. Many of the members of Bath Astronomers work in engineering or for the MoD, so I am especially interested in their responses to the last question...
