The Marvelettes in 1961 were begging their Postman for a letter from their loved ones. Fifty years later the Postal Service is begging Congress to make changes to their health benefits, pensions, layoffs, and closings of thousands of post offices. Gone are the days when girls wait for a letter from their boyfriends who now send emails or texts. Technology might be the murderer of the Post Office. With emails, online payments, direct deposits and withdrawals, and e-billing it seems as if the days of licking stamps may soon come to an end.
