Of course I am concerned for my own situation.
But more than that, I am amazed how relaxed everyone
at the Passport agency is.
After all the problems we have had with security these
last few years, I would think that would have a higher
sense of urgency.....
It's a nation of 300 milllion plus. Passports are lost and stolen every day. Sad as it may sound, they cannot excitedly respond to every passport gone missing. If I were you I would worry first and foremost about identity theft, because that and not terrorism is teh likeliest motive. Then again I suppose they would eventually sell a passport to smugglers or something. But with computerized systems, a reported passport might be a red flag. Also, your passport could be in a storm drain or wherever it blew into when the postman dropped it.
