Brian:
Make the complaint, you may be surprized to hear that the post office has
security, cameras etc. and are they not at a higher state of alert? You
won't have a chance if you don't try , and at the least they may be able to
stop future thefts, where is CSI when you need them? What was it that was
stolen again? I have 128MB Azenram memory new in the pack that I will give
you if that helps you out.
