I just received 57 copies of this in the mail today. The return addresses look suspiciously like other MN participants ...
I think somebody named Heinz is the culprit.

Most or all of this drama, humiliation, wasted taxpayer money could be spared -
with even modest attempt at presenting balanced facts from the start.

Ooops, sorry for that. Next time I'll probably be the one who falls for it.

Is it biblical? Is it Christlike? Is it loving? Is it true? How can I find out?

I get USDA agricultural surveys in the mail which say that legally I have to fill them out. The funny thing is, since I'm not a farmer, legally I don't have to fill them out.

Completed+submitted.

They seemed quite intent on making sure i got this done.
About a week after the first mailing (OP) .. i received a letter telling me i had not completed the task, and, if i did not comply soon, they would send the online survey in U.S. mail. :-|

Well. ok. i was glad they realized i might not have internet access, or know how to use it.

i will leave my thots at that for the present.
