I thought the letters last week were a stupid waste of taxpayer's money, especially since my 94 year old mother got two letters, exactly the same.
This Monday, the census form came and I helped Mom fill it out (she has some Alzheimers problems). We filled out all the information except for the phone number. I don't want some bureaucrat calling Mom up and harassing her, as she gets pretty excited and confused these days. If they really want to talk to her, they can look her number up in the phone book.
I can understand a need to count the people of this country every 10 years. But I think that the questions on the form go too far, and I have only seen the "short" form. And I hope the data that is gathered is really secure. A full name and accurate date of birth can allow a search that could lead to all kinds of information that unscrupulous persons could use to really damage a person. In these days of identity theft, we really need to be careful.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
