You're welcome, Louise411.

At least somebody liked something about that post

I thought that it was a hysterical comment on our IP-obsessed times

Cheers,

Thanks;
I believe writing letters will become popular again. True Believer Well, I need to look up that Cumberbatch British movie where no privacy can be found. Windows is a sponge. Why not just write on paper? I enjoyed the link and saved it. TY again.

Hi Ikey

Really interesting site. I was hoping there was a regulation about parking in front of a mailbox. Our next door neighbor always parks in front of ours.

Louise: Writing letters again is being hopeful. I think the only letters will be from Bill Collectors and those are printed. People probably are thinking: why write a letter and wait days for a response when I can use the internet, cell phone, etc. and get an immediate answer. Also, most cursive writing I have seen is horrible and incredibly hard to read. In my New England early school days there were penmanship classes. Everyone's pencil box (those were required) had a wooden pen holder, nibs, and a pen wiper cloth
