The national news yesterday showed a scene of a baseball game paused while they removed a critter from the field: a turtle!! And when an outfielder ran up to the turtle, the turtle took off running at a speed nobody would believe if they weren’t watching it themselves. High-speed turtles! Who knew?! (Google it. It’s a hoot.)
why attack the letter carrier?…..if the point here is that the postal Service isn’t speedy in it’s deliveries , it’s not the carrier’s fault… by this logic, the reason you didn’t yet get that package that was sent last week is because the mailman walks too slowly—that’s absurd
Mail service in my area is very good almost all the time. I have a suspicion that in areas where government work is respected you get good people doing government work, while in areas where government work is not respected you don’t.

Curious solution. Did slower speed make mm more precise in delivering? Not likely to have added speed.
