60 Minutes/Vanity Fair Poll: August Edition

• If time travel existed, was readily available, and you were guaranteed to return to the present, would you prefer to travel to the past or to the future?

As Shakespeare said, "What's past is prologue" and 61 percent would travel back to see the past.

Thirty four percent would go forward to see the future. There seems to be an inverse relation with the age of each group of respondents.

Seventy one percent of young Americans would travel to the past, while 40 percent of older Americans want to glimpse the future.

As is the case in many instances, the heart often wants that which is most difficult to possess…

Maybe you should tell your daughter in law to grow up and stop acting like a spoilt brat. To waste that much energy crying over a dress...you're kidding right??

[2010annoyed2010]

You would save heartbreak for hundreds, maybe thousands of brides if you could investigate David's Bridal and their invisible customer service people, the bridal gown horror stories...such as shoddy alterations that destroy the bridal gown just before the wedding, the rude employees and the horrendous company policies, like store credit for cancelling a newly ordered wedding gown, Google "Davids bridal complaints" and the story almost writes itself. It's just not right that a company can treat people so badly and continue to make a profit. They are in a business that caters to a little girls dream of being a beautiful bride. Every bride-to-be imagines finding "the one", even if she can only afford $300 or $400. The heavy-handed alteration fees are a crime, especially for the unskilled labor, in some cases. My own dress alterations were more expensive than my dress.
My daugher-in-law-to-be watched her dress basically detroyed before her eyes as appointment after appointment, she watched the seamstresses try to correct errors they made on the previous alteration. What company hires people capable of destroying 'the dream', They know what's going on in their company and they just don't care. My daughter-in-law-to-be has cried A LOT in the last couple of weeks and moreso lately as her wedding comes closer and her second dress still is not ready. I considered David's Bridal the "Walmart of Weddings" but then I realized that this was a real insult to Walmart. They do have decent customer service.
