OOC
Based on the spartacus Gay Travel Index. Inspired in part by Numorland's Tourism Friendliness Index. It's a restructuring of the previous questionnaire I had, which was on for a spectacular 3 days before I both burnt out from answering everyone, partly due to how I'd done it, and was bummed out by the lack of cohesive thought put toward it. I hope that this version is slightly more coherently put together.
