Yeah, this is another of those American mentality problems... I just recently
sold an article to a large-circulation American magazine.  Communication
with them through the mail was always sent to me via Amsterdam.  As someone
pointed out, this slows things down considerably.  Also I'm SURE it must be
cheaper to just put a stamp (isn't mail to Canada the same as the US rate?)
and drop it in a mailbox rather than SHIP all the mail first to Amsterdam
(no electronic copies here) and then mail it.  Oh well.
