The Human-Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon University is conducting a study of how individuals with chronic Lyme disease, and people who support them, use online resources to support themselves. Such resources include sites offering medical information as well as research and experience blogs, forums, and so on.
We seek participants to complete the survey (link below), which should take about 30 minutes. We will compensate survey participants $50 through a raffle; the chance of being selected will be no worse than 1 in 100, but depends on how many people respond to the survey.
When you complete the survey, you can also choose to be later contacted about further participation through an interview or a diary study.
In order to participate, you must be (1) Between 18 and 90 years of age, and (2) Either have chronic Lyme disease or provide close support to someone with chronic Lyme disease.
The results of our study will be used to drive the design and development of tools to help individuals with chronic illness and their caregivers find, use, and share online information.

If you don't live in the states, it won't accept your zipcode! I have selected "I do not reside in the state", but it still wants me to put an American zipcode.
Is this a glitch? Or is it just me?
