There are bigger problems than this.

The first rule of surveys is to validate your audience.  Asking in a
usenet newsgroup doesn't do that.  And without a known audience, the
results are worthless.

Either the "student" has absolutely no idea what he's doing or he's not
really a student and trying to collect emails or similar.  No reputable
PhD program I know of would accept such a "survey".
