[net.general] The snails strike again!

hardie (12/14/82)

The combined efforts of the U.C.L.A., U.S. and Canadian Snail services
have produced the most bizarre mail delivery I have ever seen.
We have just received a letter that is from the Powell Library at UCLA
and is addressed to Academic Computing on that very same campus.
The address makes it quite clear that the letter is simply UCLA campus mail
and is as follows:
	Perspective
	Office of Academic Computing
	5628 Math Science Addition
	CAMPUS

our address is:
	Academic Computing Services
	University of Saskatchewan
	SASKATOON, SASK, S7N 0W0,
	CANADA.
:-) Notice the resemblance? :-)
We have had mail delivered to us that was intended for a different 
department, I have even seen mail addressed to Computer Science here but
which gave the province as ALASKA instead of Saskatchewan but I think
this one really gets the prize!

PS. someone might pass on to the Powell Library, UCLA that a phone call
usually works a lot faster - better still, use USENET!!!!!!
