Snail Mail Indeed

Have any important documents to send to a Senator? Perhaps a petition for an upcoming Bill? Don't bother. This is part of a message from a Senator's aide:

Ever since the anthrax attacks, our mail has been irradiated. This means we get it as much as 2 months late, and it has been cooked. Colored documents are particularly at risk - they wound up stuck together and impossible to separate. I do not advise sending anything by mail.
