    In the Mail II: From my accountant, regarding third quarter income tax payments mailed to the IRS in San Francisco:

    An accident occurred on the San Mateo Bridge near San Francisco in the early morning hours of September 11, as a contract courier was delivering mail from the post office to a check-processing facility in Hayward, California. The IRS estimates that approximately 30,000 of the estimated 45,000 tax payments on board the vehicle, mostly Form 1040-ES quarterly estimated tax payments, were ejected into the San Francisco Bay and are not recoverable.

    Someone cashed my check. Hope it was the IRS and not some lucky fisherman on the Bay.
