Robert Forstag (asker) Oct 5, 2010:
@Jose Possibly. But the PM did not identify it as a back translation (which usually is the case). Thanks once again.

Robert, I can clearly see that the text is a not very good translation from previous EN text into SP. The errors are obvious. Could this be a back translation and they are just checking on the person that translated it?
