-Caveat Lector- Dear Taxpayers of Utah: Using the pseudonym "Adam Walker", I spent last summer working for DATASTAT, at 3975 Research Park Drive, Ann Arbor, a telemarketing firm current soaking Utah taxpayers for "surveys" on behalf of the Utah Department of Health and Utah Medicaid. Their webpage is at: http://www.datastat.com While DATASTAT did not ostensibly sell anything, they did make unwanted phone calls to people (as late as 9:30 pm) soliciting their answers in "surveys". Clients included Home Box Office, which hired Datastat to call unsuspecting people coast-to-coast, then subject them to a lengthy series of questions on TV viewing habits. People who hung up on the call WERE TO BE CALLED BACK IMMEDIATELY. Those who refused to cooperate after having their privacy violated, were assigned to a special "convert team" which would call them back repeatedly, even after they refused. Other Clients included the National Institute of Justice & Johns Hopkins University (people were called to determine their feelings about "police and public safety"; questions included "How many guns do you have in your home?"), and something called "The National Sleep Foundation". I was not pleased with my association with Datastat. I garnered a certain amount of information during my weeks there: Interviewers were told not to accept "Uh-huh" and "uh-uh", or even "sure" as a yes response; calls were made as late as 9:30 pm, and interviewers were told to be persistent. I would strongly suggest that the taxpayers of Utah take issue with this matter. Datastat can be reached at 1-800-837-3737; suspicious phone contactees were told to call this number and ask for "extension 176" to "verify the survey". Sincerely, T. Casey Brennan 317 S. Division St., No. 181 Ann Arbor, MI 48104-2203 P.S. I am also a nationally know author and activist; be sure and check these T.
