no energy shortage

I found out this afternoon that the Postal Service is removing all the mail collection boxes in my neighborhood, that have been there for years. The mail carriers in this area routinely drop mail in peoples yards or deliver it to wrong addresses, and won't come up to your house at all unless they have something to deliver (in the city we can't put mailboxes by the street). Now this.

This would require us to drive to the post office to deposit mail if we didn't want to run the risk of it sitting in our house mail boxes for days. Meanwhile, the lazy carriers are still driving thru the neighborhood every Monday thru Saturday, getting paid for screwing up.

Only in America........

    You're right about laziness.Nobody walks anywhere,they drive around the parking lot for 10 minutes to get a spot closer to the Gym?

    When

    you mentioned energy shortage I thought about myself yesterday. No energy at all. Feeling better today though. My wife thinks I'm crazy cuz I park as far out as I can when I go to the store. I go up and down the stairs on the job twice as fast as my helper. When I was in Brussels everyne was skinny because everybody walked everywhere they could, even if it was to reach the mass transit trains and busses. The biggest energy shortage is between our ears. Amen brother! We gotta stop designing around the suburbia concept and go back to a town center design. It's already happening around here, It's way overdue. WW

    I've met a few folks who could heat their house with this device, properly routed of course.

    Unless you've lived here, you cannot comprehend the "drive-thru" and "drive to" culture here in middle America. The core of generally rotting cities are slightly better, but EVERY government action in the last 20 years has been to INCREASE reliance on individual transportation over greater and greater distances.
