I keep remembering being in France about 10 years ago. I had rented a car and was toolin' around the country. When in Avignon I had my passport stolen from the car while I was checking out the sights. For who knows what reason, I went and made a police report and the cop told me that I didn't need a new passport to get out of the country, that the police report would do. But then I realized I might need one to get IN to the US. I could have been stuck in international purgatory till hell froze over. So I got a new one from the Embassy. I tried to give the Embassy the number of my stolen passport, but they didn't care. So I called the State Department in Paris, and they didn't care either. When I went through Customs in the US, I asked the official how much a stolen US passport was worth and he told me that it was worth at least $5000. (that was 10 years ago) I keep expecting to see some terrorist apprehended and him giving them my name. Geeeez. I hope we have all grown up.
