Here's the real reason (just to finish off your list):

• The mail gets picked up by your mailman in his truck. (<--burns gas)
• He puts it in mail sorting machine to sort it. (<--uses electricity)
• From there, it goes onto a truck to go to a hub. (<-- burns gas)
• The hub is next to an airport, so the mail goes onto a plane. (<--burns fuel)
• From the plane, the mail goes to another hub for sorting.(<--uses electricity)
• After it's sorted, it goes onto a truck to go to the post office. (<--burns gas)
• At the post office, it goes into a sorting machine. (<-- uses electricity)
• And from there, it goes into mail bag and onto a truck. (<--burns gas)
• So the mail goes back to the sender, who not only has to pay the postage, but he has go through the same time-wasting ordeal that I encounter -- He has to expend labor to open it up, read it, and since it's worthless to him, he can't resend or use it -- PRICELESS!
