Is color of the genset important?
Hi!!
For the past few months I have worked for power generation industry as an analyst. What I observed was that a lot of people are getting influnced by the color of the generator. To find out how color of the genset is related to the brand of the company, I have created a study which is available on the following link: http://www.zoomerang.com/survey.zgi?p=WEB226WZ6QKTDV I invite all who are interested in generators to participate in this study. You can help me make my study better. Cheers to all!!! Mayank |

"MMC" wrote in message ... I'd guess it would be female "yachtspersons" buying gensets based on color? Or maybe this would be one of those very rare instances where the term "gender confused" can be used? "Gee honey, I bought the red one, because it matched my new favorite shoes!" Can't be any sillier than, "Gee, honey, I bought this one because the saleswoman had the biggest tits." ;-) |

oups.com: You can help me make my study better. Obviously, gensets painted green mean they are green, which makes Algore real happy. Blue gensets, of course, must be special "marine" units, being the same color as the water in Tortola. RED gensets, obviously, are to be avoided as are yellow and orange because they clash with the blue main engine color scheme. I'm sorta partial to haze grey, myself. I like this one: http://www.nucleartourist.com/systems/diesel1.htm I'll provide plenty of power to meet "boater demands" on the hook, but we're having trouble finding a suitable mounting location in a 41' ketch. I think what we could do is barge mount it in the middle of the mooring field on its own mooring, then rent "barge space" to tie up the neighbors to it, complete with all the power you want, instead of everyone mooring out with flashlights in the heat. Notice it has a green base, indicating it uses little fuel and makes no pollution. Larry -- You can tell there's extremely intelligent life in the universe because they have never called Earth. |

If you care about paint colors I want the color that sticks best, will not fade, is hard to chip, tough as nails, resistant to fuels, and cheap. That's the color I want. You are putting the cart before the horse IMO. People associate gen- set colors after they know how good they are, not the other way around. Joe |

Mayank Hey there, Lets see, I teach an upperdivsion Interviewing: Stratigies & Skills course among other stuff for the past 16 years. I took your survey and who ever crafted the questions need to revise them for any valid info. Several questions have violated rule number one........ Pelople dont always do as they say they do. that a big problme with SRQ data , (self report questions) Q: 6,7,9,10 are good examples of this. I doubte anyone will cop to "...Yup, im an idiot cause I buy gen set cause they look purdy...." Q 11 is on the right track and Q 15-18 are also usefull. But please never ask someone, "are you a pervert" and expect to get a truthfull respnse. Most of your 5 point Likert Scales work but........... again its all about how you craft the question. Bob |
