[meteorite-list] Unbelievably late package - is UPS better?

[E.P. Grondine]

Hi Don, list - 

Thanks for the information. I have regularly been
experiencing late delieveries with international
mailings of my book "Man and Impact in the Americas
when shipping via USPS, so this information is quite
important for me.

It's frustrating, but then what are the alternatives?

good hunting, 
Ed
