They could drop mail delivery down to once a week as far as I am concerned.
They can even drop it down to only once a month.

Yet another example how a transportation based industry is negatively impacted by high gas prices.

Stupid Govt.

And now a trip down memory lane.  I remember as a kid we had two mail deliveries a day, and it was a way for families to remain in touch with the out of towners.  Now most of the stuff we get are ads and bills.  We use the internet to pay our bills cuz stamps got so expensive, so I really don't care how frequently our junk mail is delivered.  Birthday cards are nice to receive, but what the heck.  I'll even give those up if I have to.
