Nice job! It took quite a bit of fandangling to get rid of my junk mail, until I discovered a completely unpublicized rule in Canada. If you put a red dot on your mailbox in Canada, the postal worker does not put junk mail in your mailbox. It's a nifty system, that could be adopted world wide.

Wouldn't it take time to sort the junk mail out. More time than just to deliver it. That said I can see why the people/groups that are supporting him on other grounds are doing so, of course. His rationale (the radical service postie) is noble too even if it isn't totally without self interest (less deliveries - although the sorting issue comes up again).
