    I like the idea of community mail boxes bringing the local community together. Hell, I don’t even know a lot of my city neighbours. This could work out nicely, especially if neighbours bring mail to their other neighbours who have trouble with mobility. That and less tax money spent. Good all around.

      True enough. Carrying their two letters should certainly be easier than getting groceries home. Maybe SkipTheDishes will expand their service to deliver mail.

        Well, there is always a lot of unrelated negativity you can throw in on anything. I do it myself. I’ll take the community mail boxes as a small win though. This may lead to “Hey, I’ll take you shopping anytime!” from one of the neighbours. We need a strong local community again.
