Ain't that the truth.
We had just the opposite experience in Bogotá, Colombia a few years ago when one of my male talent lost his passport (he claimed the maid stole it). We went to the Embassy and they were closed! We told the soldier at the gate we were leaving the country in a day and needed to get a emergency passport. To our surprise he let us in and found someone to hook it up. I was very impressed and pretty happy knowing they actually took care of us like that.
Nothing but good experiences with the US Embassy in Thailand as well.
To hear of an Embassy not helping an American in a time of need really rubs me the wrong way. That's what they are there for. It's sad really.
