So noted, Mark.  Just like a college prof to write an epistle where just a
few words will suffice. ;-)

Like I said, the last four numbers are not necessary.  I use the USPS
website for tracking stuff that I put a "confirmation" on.  This service of
theirs comes in very handy when I ship one of my books or a set of
golf clubs that I've sold.  I always want to know the date and the time
that my important stuff was delivered.

The last four numbers are what is called zip plus
4...the USPS can deliver a package to the correct
address, even if many other things are incorrect in
the address if the zip plus 4 is present.  But the
last four numbers are not necessary, but often an aid
(especially for people for me, I recently sent a
package to Iowa and forgot to put the street number,
but because I used the zip plus 4, it made it there
just fine)...and Jimmy, it isn't hard to find the
whole zip plus 4..just go to the USPS site
(www.usps.gov) and you can easily look it up...
