I send small parcels through mail every day. They go all over the world and the error rate is less than 1one percent.

I am consistently amazed that I can put something in a slot in Woodstock NY and have it turn up in the correct slot on the other side of the world in just a few days. They even come to my house and pick up.

When I do go to my local post office the only surly people are the people behind me in line.

As to junk mail, I opt out where I can and recycle the rest. And quietly thank the spamming businesses for subsidizing mine.
