Probability would seem to indicate that there are those who frequent the PO more often than others, and that the use of the PO by average people is declining.
This, in turn, would cause me to guess that there are PO “power users” who, frequenting the PO more than others, are more likely to come in to contact with those who can count on one hand the decades it’s been since they last even thought about a PO.
Assuming any of this to be true, it appears as though Michael has just just now noticed this.
Your actually not far off. The power users are mostly just businesses and government offices. I know because I work for a major print company in my area and we actually have a mail department in our building that uses the Post Office 3-5x per day, not including our own delivery service, fed-ex, ups, etc. We also work with a lot of other businesses in the area and government print work, and use the PO constantly. During our Political Season, they will actually cut us off after a point and simply tell us they can only send so much mail by a certain date.
