Fun Online Poll/Science

The outright winner in last week's Fun Online Poll, Who is the real Prince Of Darkness?, was Peter Mandelson, with 82% of the votes. Ozzy Osbourne was a distant second with 18%.

Following some interesting debate here, which appeared to get bogged down in the detail, let's see if we can beat CLOUD to the right answer at a fraction of the cost. This week's Fun Online Poll asks: "Do ionized particles encourage low-level cloud formation?"

Is it the poll software that limits it to a "yes" or "no" answer?

Ions probably create more higher clouds though, so the net effect is anyone's guess.

Knirirr, am I restricted to a "yes" or "no" answer?

AC1, in relative terms cosmic rays create more low-level clouds (the protons have to turn into muons first).

Well, given the nature of the question I thought that an addition answer labelled "I haven't got the slightest clue" (or similar) might be useful as well.

K, Pollcode allows you up to three dozen answers. I resisted the temptation to add a couple of alternative answers like "Deidre Rashid" or "Colonel Mustard in the pantry with the serving wench" because I wanted to keep it simple.
