Found this somewhere...

http://www.armory.com/swallow.html

Some sort of internet thingy called Deep Thought asks you to sign up for it first. It asks all the usual questions "What is your name?" and so on. Just for the hell of it, the sysadmin decided to put in that famous question that is in the topic from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The results how people responded are pretty funny/interesting/stupid/etc., and they were all tallied up and put on a webpage...which is the one at the top of this post.

So....yeah...

That's pretty good.
A few of the responses I liked;

614 African or European?
