I can deal with a special tear-out page.   I do not think sending the
complaint only to the local post office tells AIS anything.   I think AIS
wants to
know if this is a localized problem or a larger more generalized problem.
Going on word of mouth, it seems like a generalized problem with this issue.
I
do think we (AIS) need to identify the problem.   We (AIS) need the
information
(data).
     Who would receive the information?   An assistant-to-the-editor could be
assigned to this task of being the collecting and collating point for
Bulletin delivery data.   At present we don't have any editor's assistants,
but we
should.   Maybe this would be a reasonable place to reintroduce that function
to
Bulletin production. I'm sure several names could be put forth by members of
the active AIS community.
     Cheers!
