I've read numerous articles that say the envelopes were screened and postmarked "Feb 28". No mention of city on postmark.

That a large number of stuffed manila envelopes bypassed the Capitol Hill post office sounds ludicrous to me.

That is why the report of the letters by passing the postal service made me do a double take. That would indicate that the letters somehow got to the offices by means of someone who had access to the congressional buildings.

I agree it sounds ludicrious, but given those early reports, that is where the logic lead me.
