While we all decry opening the mailbox to its stuffing of catalogs, I think that the mail service is still a viable method of communication. Now the poverty-stricken Post Office announces that it will close our regional offices in Wallingford and Stamford. I believe Wallingford routes our mail from the localities. Rep. Rosa DeLauro issued a press release March 27 against such a move. Our Madison representative is Joe Courtney. I have emailed him to express my agreement with DeLauro’s statement, and asked him to follow suit. I ask readers to contact their local representative to stop the Post Office’s desperate move. A postal employee in Guilford told me that we can say goodbye to next day mail, among other changes.
