Barry,

  Well, either way, I don't have funding to do it at the moment, so it
has to wait.

  Plus, I've had bad experiences with both the Postal Service (lost
pieces of mail to/from me), and UPS (when still working, they lost 2
shipments of 10,000 decals from my workplace to a business in state...
then, they said I didn't supply a power cord to an item that I had
shipped. I think they just pocketed it, and lied about it). I've
never had a problem with FedEx. Now, if weather is an issue, I can
understand a delay. But if weather isn't the issue, then the employees
are just being careless and lazy. The things that have killed the Postal
Service are:

1) Huge retirement packages.
2) Loss of mail (many cases where it was trashed).
3) People going to email.
4) People using FedEx, UPS, DHL.
