Gee, isn't LJ's poll software interesting? Specifically, the bar graph, which I just checked my impressions of by putting a ruler to my screen:
* 0 = 1cm
* 2 = 3cm
* 15 = 16cm

Therefore, 2 / 3 = 0.

To be a little bit more constructive, why don't they just use a little red dot or "|"?

I think I'll post this on the LJ blog as well.
