Thanks Bank of America, I Think

I recently received a letter from Bank of America stating that "some or all" or my personal information "may" have been exposed. No further explanation was given other than a brief statement saying that they (Bank of America) were not the party responsible for the loss of data and that as a precaution, they would be closing my account and issuing new cards. Oh ya, and since I'm such a good customer they would be raising my credit limit. I assume this is to increase the risk of my complete financial ruin when the next inadvertent data loss takes place. I'm not alone in this since apparently they "lost" the data for a million customers and they "lost" the data for another 670,000 customers.  Maybe we should go back to just stuffing all our money into mattresses that our kids can accidentally throw away when we die.
