The U.S. Census Bureau is still having problems with its computer system that handles the data for households that did not return a census form.

Yep, let's blame it on the "computer system" instead of the real problem.

LAZY, INEFFICIENT GOVERNMENT WORKERS!

Actually what I’ve heard through the grapevine is when someone hasn’t returned the form, the program they use to input the data crashes time and again with a “blank field not found” error or something to that effect.

I think it’s hilarious myself, but whatever....

I answered all the questions but the answers were not likely to be what 0 would want. On a few I said None of the government's business. On a couple I said I would not answer because I had no faith that the information would NOT be sold to 3rd party (SEIU/ACORN) types and could be used against me later.

I haven't heard a word back yet.
