I must admit I do not understand. The US mail is being blamed. If I may submit this quote by Tony Smith on the technote forum: Quote - “I must apologise for the delay, I can confirm they have all been posted to you. We are using a new postal service via our new office and its fare to say that there are always teething problems. However, you should receive the magazine any day now and we will ensure that this does not happen again”.

The US mail is not a new postal service. I take that statement to mean it to be a mailing service company that does what is necessary to process the mailing for delivery by the US post office. He also states he will ensure that this does not happen again. It must be that mailing service who screwed up because Tony cannot ensure anything related to the United States Postal Service. The United States Postal Service is too old to have teething problems but I can see where the people preparing the magazines for posting could be having problems. All this indicates to me the United States Postal Service though it might not be the fastest, cannot be totally blamed for this screw-up although it is being used as the whipping boy. The same thing happened when computers started to be used in business. When people messed up they blamed the computer for their mistakes. People were fooled for a time but soon realized it was junk in, junk out. This is the way I look at the mess and will stick with it until proven different.
