It is apparant you reject the notion that underlies modern technology ~ that standardization across a class of elements reduces costs and makes them more widely available to more people at a price they can afford.

I'm sorry I cannot join you in a rejection of modernism ~ so, back into your cave.

Oh Great Postal "Service" Apologist, pray tell us: When did this standardization ever result in lower costs? The price of mailing the most garden variety first class mail has only gone up during my lifetime. I guess your boys just forgot to pass all the great savings along to us poor schlubs forced to use this "service" that constantly reduces service. (Hello? Anyone else remember when there were two daily deliveries of mail?)
