One way to deal with that portion of one's junk mail that includes a
postage-paid return envelope is to tape the envelope (empty, of course)
to a brick, and drop it in the nearest mail box. If the junk mailers
get bricked enough times, it is no longer economical to mass-mail their
drivel. And if enough postal carriers get hernias, maybe their manage-
ment will be motivated to eliminate the problem. And if neither scenario
occurs, the junk-mailees (that's us) may have to escalate to cinder
blocks.
