To Brits, Internet more important than drinking water
The Science Museum in London conducted the survey by asking 3,000 adults what things they couldn’t live without. Facebook turned up in fifth place, beaten only by sunshine (top spot), an Internet connection (2), clean drinking water (3) and a fridge (4).

Why is the most salient piece of information always left out of these (so called) polls? Where was the sample drawn from e.g. internet users, visitors to the Science Museum, pensioners wandering down Wandsworth High Street, school kids etc..?

"The survey was conducted as part of a new exhibition at the museum – Water Wars: Fight The Food Crisis – which highlights new technologies being used to tackle the problem of water scarcity."
So, there's not a full description of the sample, but "3,000 adults" would probably make it representative. Still, I would love to see the questionnaire and statistical methods used.
