No, I don't think the ticker is an improvement, but the client wants
some of the viewer's attention drawn to the survey box and I suggested
that the marquee would be the most uninstrusive and least obnoxious
method of doing so. Plus there are only three words being scrolled so
the viewer won't be waiting for minutes to read a marquee'd speech for
example.
