Regarding agency instructions for meeting proposal deadlines, I thought you
would all enjoy the "wide-openness" of this statement I found in a recent
RFP from the Dept. of Labor. I'm sure the program officer involved will
appreciate getting all those calls to see if proposal X has arrived....

"Notice: All applicants are advised that U.S. mail delivery in the
Washington, DC area has been erratic due to the recent concerns involving
anthrax contamination. All applicants must take this into consideration when
preparing to meet the application deadline, as each applicant assumes the
risk for ensuring a timely submission of its application. If, because of
these mail problems, the Department does not receive an application or
receives it too late to give it proper consideration, even if the
application was timely mailed, the Department will not consider the
application. Therefore, it is recommended that applicants confirm receipt of
their applications by contacting [the program officer]."
