Hi Daryl!

 BM>   U.S. Mail is protected by more than 200 federal laws enforced by the
 BM>   Postal Inspection Service, one of the nation's oldest law enforcement
 BM>   agencies. ... The Postal Service receives NO tax dollars for
 BM> operating
 BM>   expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to
 BM>   fund its operations.
 DS>   And, postage keeps going up...as more folks go to email, FedEx,
 DS> UPS, DHL, etc.

Plus the normal expenses without the competitors: rasies to the
employes for increases in cost of living, increased costs of utilities, 
maintaining the postal vehicles, etc., etc., etc.  The competitors might
help keep the costs down.  ...U.S. rates are cheaper than some other 
parts of the world: in Austria (where my Aunt lives) it costs her 1 Euro
to mail a letter. E1 is about USD1.20.  



 DS>   In Rodney Atkins' song, "Watching You", the traffic light goes
 DS> straight from green to red. That'll happen on the rail lines, but
 DS> not so much on regular traffic lights...unless it's going from
 DS> WALK to DONT WALK. But, if you're on the corner of WALK and DONT
 DS> WALK, are you are a CROSSWALK?? :P

RTH!!!


 DS>   Sort of like "Hit Me. I Need The Money". :P
 BM> Well adults might do that, I don't think kids nor animals.
 DS>   True...especially the squirrels.

I've read the best thing to do is just maintain speed and don't swerve. 
Their brains are wired the predator (car) is after them and keeps the 
same speed to capture them.  Any swerving is to compensate for the 
change in path of them, to get them, not to avoid.  And yes, I do feel 
bad if I hit one but better them than me getting into an accident.
