This is generating a lot of interest - but the "30-day grace period" was probably expired since the insureds definitely indicated the policy would lapse on that Sunday. Don't forget the federal regulations on rewriting a lapsed policy. There is the mandatory 30-day waiting period.

The big question is why the hell did the insureds wait until the last minute to make the payment? These folks must take responsibility for paying their bills on time! Where is personal responsibility going now? Do you think we should coddle everyone who doesn't make payments on time? I don't.
