Subject: Sightings at the Post Office
Today I was at the post office, and one of their posters caught my
eye. This poster promotes a contest, "Tell us, in 125 words or less,
how Postal ServiceĀ™ products have helped your business."

This poster has a young Asian man sitting at a desk, looking at the
camera (viewer) and doing some calculations with what definitely
looks like a slide rule. This slide rule appears to be made of
mahogany much like a Keuffel & Esser rule, but without a cursor.

I believe this contest lasts until mid-October so the next time your
at the post office, check it out.
