I'd be fascinated to know how a factor analysis works (I tried looking at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factor_analysis, but it's not the most
accessible Wikipedia page).

Another alternative might be to force people to make a binary choice between
"scenic" and "not scenic", or perhaps a 4 way choice with 2 "very" options.
Then you avoid all the indecisive 4-6 responses.
