If you mailed a letter in Madison going to a Madison address it gets there the next day.
Then some years ago they took our sorting machines to Milwaukee, so if you sent a letter 2 blocks away at a Madison address
It would go all the way to be sorted in Milwaukee and then sent back to Madison! And a letter going from here to there and back again took 2 days. Bastards!
