It totally does. :-)

Mostly because it doesn't even attempt to open a connection to the server
at this point. If you say "Save" it simply records that you have submitted
the survey and goes away. It doesn't even bother to read the state of the
checkboxes. As I said above, this is intended as a conversation starter.
It seemed silly to read out all the checkboxes if this is all likely to
change, anyway.
