Make it optional, then.

MULTIPLE CHOICE vs. TEXT AREA

If you make the survey all multiple choice, (radio/check) please 
include at least one optional comment area at the end for comments 
about anything that is yet burning on the survey-ee's mind.

I often find that multiple-choice surveys don't address my most 
significant issues.  More often, I find my choice is not listed in 
the options provided.

There's a set of assumptions made, that in my case often end up being wrong.

I really hate getting multiple choice surveys when my choice is not 
there, or when I don't understand the wording of the questions.  In 
that  case, the "comment" area gives me a chance to give the 
survey-writers a piece of my mind.
________________

ANONYMITY

I discourage it.

I think info is more likely to be accurate if it has a real Evolt 
name attached to it.  I think the results should be published in an 
anonymous fashion however.  Stats + list of additional comments or 
something like that.
