Clearly he forgot a word, "not." The message that we need to get out is
that your answers to the survey DO NOT affect your test score. I'd like to
ask everyone to stop spreading that silly rumor.

I doubt he is kicking himself. A lot of Cisco people don't have a clue how
to proof read. I don't think he even knows what awful writing that was,
(though I did respond and point it out, of course. &;-) There is a labor
shortage in Silicon Valley. I guess Cisco can't manage to hire skilled
people for jobs that require communicating with the public. Sorry, if that
sounds really cynical.
