I have never ever heard of the US postal service delivering >a Next-Day letter on the next day. "Next Day" to the U.S. postal >service means "The Next day when we get around to thinking about your >package, we'll think about delivering it." That's interesting, because both Federal Express and the United States Postal Service deliver 98+ percent of their overnight packages on-time. i'm tired of people bitching about lousy service from the Post Office. Everyone is willing to overlook 2 or 3 problems with a private firm, but let the post office screw up once, and they never forget. I don't work for the Postal Serice, never have. i have no affiliation with them whatsoever. i am just tired of all the unfair criticism. -shabtai (e-mail addresses/long sig follow) UUCP: uunet!pyramid!cdp!sklein | BitNet: cdp!sklein%labrea@stanford Internet: cdp!sklein@arisia.xerox.com | Phone: (301) 270-2250 "You can't always get what you wan't" -- Rolling Stones "You can get it if you really want" -- Jimmy Cliff
