Saturday Mail Service

[WMSteed@aol.com]

Come on folks, Murf and several congressmen (persons) have made the virtually 
the same statement.  Can't anyone explain in detail why Saturday mail service 
is essential to someone?

The following was sent out on April 8:

Murf,

In this weekends Biz Bits column you state that "People and businesses 
depending on six-day per week mail would be irreparably hurt and driven to 
use other means [if Saturday delivery is eliminated]."    Any checks received 
Sat. will not be credited to accounts until Monday night and, for me, 
Saturday's catalogs and bills can just as well be handled on Monday.  Can you 
amplify and give some examples of the presumed irreparable harm?
