Mongo deserves mention as a "non-permanent" resident, but don't list him on form unless you are prepared to haul him to a courtroom when he is summoned to be a juror, depending on how asinine your local court administration is. One thing in his favor is that he doesn't have a drivers license. Or does he? I'm not sure. I don't know what he gets up to. Maybe he was in jail during his last 8 week walkabout. |

Get it done. Tweed There's a lot more fuss about it on here than there is among the general population. There is some dispute, but I have seen very little of it. There are always some conspiracy buffs, but they make up a small percentage of the population. Somehow, threads like this seem to take on a life of their own on the NG. Incidentally, the explanation you provided for the reasons the census is performed in the UK is the same for the US. MaryL |

Tweed There's not a fuss about it. Just Kyla, as far as I can tell. No biggie, if you can read and write. Life is full of haftas, and some people just don't get that. I hafta go to the courthouse before March 1 every year and declare property for personal and property tax. I hafta file an income tax return by April 15 every year. I hafta show up if I'm called for jury duty. Et cetera. No biggie. It's my civic duty as a citizen *if I want* to live in the US. Nobody's making me stay here. You're absolutely right. Get it done.
