BTW, if Cruise got 41% and Saddam got 39%, how does that make him LESS popular than the Butcher of Baghdad? Someone failed Statistics (or, as I like to call it when emailing my professor, "How To Lie With Numbers")

Stuff Magazine asked readers who among four personalities they would least like to share a camping tent with overnight.

If the number is higher, fewer people would want to share his tent.

I believe the question was who would you LEAST like to share a tent with overnight.

Tricky wording in the poll question. It was for whom you would least like to spend time with.

Cruise got more votes for "least".
