Dear Mr. Director:
News accounts indicate NATO (using U.S. bombers) mistakenly bombed the
Chinese embassy in Yugoslavia because CIA maps were out of date.
I had no idea Federal budget cutbacks had become so severe.
As my patriotic duty, Mr. Director, here is a $5.00 donation to the Agency.
Please use it to send one of your operatives to buy an up-to-date tourist map
of downtown Belgrade.
Sincerely,
 Robert Lee Carber
