4. I don't have a car because I'm an environmentalist whacko, and though there is no guarantee for mailboxes

being postmarked the same day (even if put in the mailbox before the pickup time), it was a near certainty that it would be postmarked the next day, anyway, I never had a problem with that issue.

I've been walking to the post office (1.5 miles) since they got rid of the neighborhood mailbox, and I really need to snail mail something. I needed the exercise anyway. Lucky I was never too sick.

(Come to think of it, a few years ago they got rid of the post office that was in the big grocery store nearer where I lived).
