Default FAA moved, left no forwarding address...

We've been a chart agent for the FAA since we opened the hotel five
years ago. They bill us for charts sold every now and then, and I
have always sent payment to the National Aeronautic Charting Office in
Greenbelt, MD.

This month the check came back marked "Undeliverable -- No forwarding
address". Puzzled, we dug around a bit, and discovered that this
division of the FAA had moved to Glenndale, MD -- so I must now send
the payment there, instead.

Can you imagine how screwed up a government agency must be to NOT let
the postal service know their new address, and forward their mail?
Can you imagine a business overlooking this important detail? Can you
imagine how many checks have been "returned to sender" nationwide?

Can you believe that the FAA wants us to believe that they need *more*
money for them to waste?
