A Poll on the Continuum Hypothesis?
John Derbyshire has suggested the next logical step after polls on evolution:
I await with interest the coming poll on public beliefs about the Continuum Hypothesis.I'm personally dubious about the Power Set Axiom in the first place.

As a computational physicist, I refuse to believe in noncomputable numbers. Since the cardinality of the computable numbers is aleph-0, it follows that the Continuum Hypothesis is irrelevant.
For that matter, since the computers I use are all digital, the real numbers are suspect as well.
