Neither rain, nor sleet, nor snow...nor Saturdays
http://news.cnet.com/2300-11386_3-10...e703&ttag=e703Ending a 150-year-old service, the U.S. Postal Service this week announced an end to Saturday deliveries of first-class mail.
By August 1, the service will be discontinued in an effort to stop the bleeding of more than $25 million in losses each day. The USPS lost a staggering $16 billion last year, and more than $41 billion over the past six years.
Not all is lost on Saturdays, however. The move to five days of service will only affect first-class mail, which means packages, along with priority and express mail will still be delivered on Saturdays, according to the plan.
