What it finally took was a lot of Yelling and screaming at the regional Post Master> The Post Office (in spite of what it says) are just a bunch of government employees who are unable to work at real jobs. If you complain to them long enough they will get off their dead duffs and get you your magazines. Bill Hughes >> Mine arrived yesterday in a manilla envelope from Bee Culture I know they paid extra postage for it to get here so quick after my impatient complaining . I fell asleep last night reading it. It's no wonder that when I ship something I use UPS Be nice if they could carry mail as the post office could use a bit of competition to get their act together.
