I thought the P.O. lost money on junk mail. Maybe instead of distributing more of the darned stuff, which goes straight into our recycling bin, they could just raise the price a little.

Someone should raise the question, how many trees will it cost to deliver more junk mail?

Standard rate mail is not handled at a loss.

It would be pretty ironic if they turned the post offices in to recycling centers. ;-)

The enviro-whacko argument won't hold much water. Trees grow back.
