                               .
Early  morning, February 9, I hand-delivered our most recent letter 
http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/~tom_d/sperry/hurlburt.html
to Richard Hurlburt, Minister NS DNR at his third-floor office in Founders'
Square in Halifax.  When I approached the reception desk and asked to leave
the letter for the Minister, the receptionist refused to accept it!  

I was directed instead back out into the corridor, around the corner to a
locked window-less door with a bell button, labelled Mail Room.  Eventually
the door was opened sufficiently that I could tell it was a man with a
coffee in one hand who had responded to the bell.  When I told him I had
been instructed by the receptionist to bring the letter there, he took it
and closed the door without a single word.

"Without a single word" summarizes the response of Minister Hurlburt and
his staff to date: not so much as the common courtesy of an Acknowledgement
of Receipt.

"Public Service"- 21st-century style
