Correspondence
Contact the Institute
The Institute receives correspondence. We read it. Response times vary, and we will not characterize the variance further than that.
The Registry Committee is not reachable by email. The Registry Committee is reachable by convening, which happens on a schedule the Institute does not control. General inquiries, blunder nominations, and certificate requests are handled by Institute staff.
General Inquiries
For all correspondence. Blunder nominations, certificate requests, press inquiries, and general questions about the Registry.
We ask that correspondents not request the Institute's opinion on whether a specific decision constitutes a Classic Blunder. The Institute does not provide opinions. The Institute provides documentation. If your situation appears in the Registry, you have your answer. If it does not, we invite you to submit a nomination.
We also ask that correspondents not contact us to dispute Registry entries. The entries are what they are. The historical record is the historical record. Napoleon did invade Russia. The winter did happen. Vizzini did die. These are not positions the Institute holds; they are facts the Institute has documented. The distinction is important to us.
