Not to me.

I think things got better a few years ago when they instituted registration
updates by mail.

They also seem to be willing to do some things over the phone.  A few
months ago I discovered that my registration had the wrong color on it.  I
called the Registry to ask them what I had to do to get it fixed.  I
expected them to either send me a form or tell me to come to the Registry,
but to my surprise she made the change immediately and mailed me a new
registration.

Barnicle probably hasn't actually gone to the Registry himself in decades,
but continues to propogate the horror stories.  Saying good things about
the government would ruin his reputation.
