Office of Steam Forum for Model & Toy Steam Gas & Hot Air Engines

  I don't want to make folks jealous, but here in Brooklyn the delivery services
for both mail and packages are pretty good.  I guess the workforce is so large
and the distances between deliveries are pretty small that it all works out.
And, I recently had items shipped from Germany and China that were delivered in
a reasonable time.  Even Morphy's got my engines to me before Christmas (after a
couple of calls).

  That said, they are delivering packages into the night, something that wasn't
done in the past.

  My newspaper hasn't been delivered in ten days.  I call a complaint line, but
they are not employees of the NY Post and neither are the delivery company or the
delivery sub-contractors.  So, nobody cares.  I'll probably be ending my subscription
soon and stop reading the paper.  It is $2 at the newsstand which is 4 times the
subscription price.  I'd rather spend the $$$ on steam engines, of course.

Good Luck,
Wayne
