My general take is that different fields and different employers view cover letters and resumes differently. Maybe it depends on if they have a human resources office or not, how large they are, etc.
In any case, we take the cover letter very seriously, more so usually then the resume. If a candidate doesn't take the time to write a thoughtful, coherent, and well written coverletter, they almost never make it out of the pile and into our review. So this would not cut it at all (way to short, generic, and the writing style is a bit awkward).
