I paid for first class and havnt gotten mine yet here in NJ Dear Schuyler and all: I received my Diamond in Helena, Montana on Friday, March 2, and yes it comes first class (after a LARGE delay of about 6-weeks one December/January). I have had other non-ELHS problems with USPS, and have gotten the following from our/my postmaster. Some places in NJ, NY, and other areas are still doing extra scanning, like sending stuff to Washington DC that are "scanned" for hazardous materials. It used to be they were all electronically fried (my term, not theirs), but now, it appears some places just do a second manual scan. This delay is only at certain locations, and can take days to weeks (and we really know this, as one model shell took 3 months because it was of a certain suspicious size. We have not yet figured out the routing for which day of the week I don't want to send anything to family in NJ (as there is a significant delay some times), but the same goes for things going this direction. Oh, and this is also why you want to send letters of support or unsupport to your congressional delegation via email and hard copy--they may get the email in time to do something on a vote, but they apparently need the hard copy to respond. Also for Paul, I do have a Eastern Meeting invite/info thing. Howard Haines <BR><BR><BR>**************************************<BR> AOL now offers free email to everyone.
