that's not what the "service reps" at the thriftline have been told. According to the guy that I just got off the phone with, he said that the mail option is permanent.
I'm hoping he's mistaken.

I'm hoping that's a mistake as well. I've been afraid they might try to do that tho. But that really would be draconian. Especially since we can't leave them for another 'provider'. Other funds that TSP like to compare themselves to, when its convienent, could never get away with something like that.
Speaking of "Foreclosure Pets":
Let me introduce you to "EEDY" (pronounced Eeee- Deee):
Attachment 3657
Attachment 3658
Eedy is a mix of Chow and golden lab. We took her in this past January, from the local http://lastchancerescue.org shelter here near my home.
She is seven years old, and came from a home where the family (mom, dad, and two kids) had their home foreclosed after he (white collar engineer with 15 years) was laid off from a major auto company.
Michigan is now 6th in the nation in foreclosures. Our county's foreclosure rate doubled last year, and that was double over the year before. Our unemployment rate for even white collar college educated is out of this world, and we never recovered after 9/11.
Eedy was with us for two months- we served as "foster parents" for her, and then was adopted by a new family about a month ago. We were honored, however, to get Eedy back for ten days, when the new family went on vacation in Florida for ten days.
Why anyone would think of leaving their dog for ten days amazes me. To me, dogs are family members, and my regular dog (Jake, seen below) goes with me regardless.
But hey, they have Eedy back now.
(Although when they came back to pick her up, Eedy obviously knew she had a better deal here, and really didn't want to go with them. )

Here is Jake, my second-born.
I got him from Last Chance rescue too, but I'm not giving him away to anyone. He's a keeper.
Jake has "personality".
