Ooops, I forgot to give you some money.

Recently the US Transprotation secretary reversed course and upped a grant to the State of Washington for ferries and terminals from $750,000 to $7.6 million. My reaction:

Ooops, I forgot to give you some money.

“He called me a little while ago and said it was his mistake and they were correcting it with this allocation to Washington state,” Murray said.(Washington State Senator Patty Murray)

Wow! A $7.6 million mistake! Does this happen as often as the casualness of the explanation would suggest? $7,600,000.00 !!
