I am surprised by the merger that has taken place with my two favorite survey sites. I'm wondering if you still are looking for survey takers or is this a thing of the past. If the opportunities are still available I am interested in rejoining you. My old email address was m.scarborough@sbcglobal.net. my new address is ldyoper1@gmail.com. thank you for consideration in this matter.
