Mike Clifford Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Speaking of which, I think now might be a good time to congratulate the sole editor and publisher of this fine publication, Mr. Scott Ferguson. A volunteer that pours his heart into this thing time and time again. The content is provided by many, but the final result is due to Scott's tireless work in putting it all together. My hat's off to him with every new issue in my mailbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Kast Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Wait a minute.....you mail it to yourself? Nope, mine gets mailed to me like everyone else. I just happen to get the extra copies Fedex'd to me a couple weeks before I get my copy. Friggin snail mail! I agree.... another excellent issue Scott!

rprice Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Received Sat- the 21st in zip 61254 Much earlier this time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rprice Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Just to wrap this up. I haven't seen any posts regarding receipt since mine. The range was from the 9th - 21st (not sure if gary in MO has his yet). I could see no pattern in zip areas as I saw equivalant deliveries to Northern IL and Springfield as what Chicago and burbs were seeing. Knowing what I know about USPS this is pertty reasonable and predictasble results. Because 612 is the one IL zip area that is handled by facilities in another state and we have a few members that live in neighboring states, could we look at sending those by First Class mail? (612, MO, IN, WI, IA). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Clifford Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 The poll is at 100%! Very encouraging. Of course, there is only one choice to click on....but still! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(612, MO, IN, WI, IA). I would want more information via a longer and better survey before reaching that conclusion. Are out of stater's always later than in state? Well, Craig in GA was one of the first to get his a few months ago. I personally think it depends mostly on the load at your local PO. Like, when they get to it. We are not going to see a pattern where IL is faster. A blanket solution with blanket cost to everyone will not help a lot. I would say we just add an option where members pay extra to get first class delivery if they want it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
