Pete, I guess I am one of little faith when it comes to our PO system....I trust my carrier and have known him for many many years....I know the people in my rural PO and can talk to them easily when I lose an item and have to make the claim......I do not know the behind the scene routes, how things are sorted, from how many people do handle the item....so it is that, which I do not know, which I have little faith in, because it is that area I may not trust........and feel my losses come from there, that middle zone.....
