Tho't I'd post here as a heads up. I've not been overly concerned about the Postal Rate Commission's decision to hike the first class mail rate by a penny. However, it seems that the media has'nt told us "the whole story". I received a knife today shipped to me via USPS Priority, shipping cost billed at $4.00. I elected to return the piece in same packaging, same box etc. etc. via USPS Priority mail. The PO price today, under the new rate guidelines, was $9.10!!! That's more than double for the same box to the same address on the same day. The PO clerk confirmed that indeed the prices had "more than doubled" and that the PO had nothing to do with it and were in fact in the process of filing a grievance with the PRC, which for us uninformed folk, is a congressionally appointed group, not the Post Office. She advised a "letter to your congressman" as a recourse. Funny, somehow FedEX and UPS are looking more and more attractive.

We often think that when we have completed our study of "one", we know all about "two", because "one and one is two". We forget that we still have to make a study of "and".
