    I live in a rural area and have a mailbox at the end of the lane and did not receive anything in the mail.
    Friday a census worker came to the house and asked where my neighbors house was and that was all.
    I do not think my family was counted.

    John, it depends on how many people you plan to put in the hole.

    The more people hired to make a simple count certainly will add complications which makes no sense unless the Feds have found it convenient during a period when jobs are scarce. The re-distribution of wealth has made us all a bit poorer, I fear.

    It makes no sense to hire more than one person to dig a hole.
