[Durham INC] Mailboxes, straight from the top

[Pat Carstensen]

If you didn't hear the interview on NPR on the challenges of the post office:http://www.npr.org/templates/transcript/transcript.php?storyId=142664274

[Congressman Darrell (hiss...)] ISSA: A 109 million homes walk out of their door to get their mail, while 37 million get it delivered inside their door. We believe that most of those 37 million homes should have a safe, secure box, either at the curb or very close by, and that that saves an additional $5 billion.SIEGEL: Those extra steps saved would mean fewer letter carriers.Of course, if you felt you were disadvantaged by the shift to curbside delivery, you could complain, at a community meeting or directly to your member of Congress.
