Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery"?

Was the question "Would you prefer to eat liquid poop from a sick cat or watch public executions on TV?" OK, even reasonable peopl have to think on this one. (You know, things like "How sick was the cat; do you like the cat; is it a pedigree cat", stuff like that.

Tell you the truth, I don't think it would be possible to get 2/3 of the people in the US to agree on anything. I know we can't in Canada, and we're lots alike. I would want to see the phrasing before I opined more. (I like that 'opine'. See? I ain't just another pretty face!)
