60012 Accepted 5/21/2008
Postal Regulatory Commission Submitted 5/29/2008 11:46:31 Filing ID: 60012 Accepted 5/21/2008 May 21, 2008 Good afternoon. I appreciate the invitation to be with you all, here in Flagstaff today, and to offer what I hope may be food for thought – and more – regarding the present re-consideration of the notions of Universal Service, the Universal Service Obligation , and the Postal Monopoly, and to join in on the discussion of these important topics. I am here as the owner and publisher of The Flute Network. We are a small entirely volunteer entity now closing in on the end of our 24 th year of service as a “bulletin board service” for flutists, flute teachers, and the people who love these kinds of folks. In addition to a website presence (which has become absolutely requisite in recent years for businesses of all kinds), we continue to organize and publish an adletter of typically 8 – 12 pages, which goes out free of charge 9 times a year, now to some 6,100 different subscribers nationwide. It is on behalf of our subscribers, and all those whom we serve by including their notices, that we’ve been tracking the flow of Flute Network mailings over the years. As with most such things, the timely receipt of our mailings is a large part of what keeps them valuable – for example, it does no good to learn of a concert or other event that one might have wanted to attend, two weeks after it happened. What is frustrating is when this kind of thing happens and those notices had actually been mailed three weeks before those events, and by the Post Office’s own standards should have been received by all in plenty of time. -

To the AIRPOST JOURNAL VOLUMES 61
Index to The Airpost Journal Vol 61-79 1990-2008 Index to THE AIRPOST JOURNAL VOLUMES 61 - 79 Page Section 1 Introduction 2 Airpost Journal Index 59 Author Index INTRODUCTION I have been a member of the American Air Mail Society for many years and during that time I have not done anything useful, except the payment of annual dues. One of the rules I have always adopted is if you are a member of a Society you should do something to further the cause of that body. My opportunity came when I read the President's Message in the December 2008 Air Mail Journal that he wanted somebody to up date the Index of the Air Post Journal so I volunteered little knowing of the task that I was undertaking. I am not a professional indexer but have had a little experience in indexing magazines in the UK. The task was to index the magazines from 1990 to 2008 (228 magazines) roughly in line with the index published in 1992. As previously stated the index continues from the previous edition except that I have included items from Letters to the Editor. I feel that there is much information contained in these letters which is of value to aerophilatelists. To quote the previous index "The APJ Index is meant to be a document helpful, but not comprehensive" and I have tried to continue in this vein. That said I hope that the Index will prove to be of some use. Needless to say any errors, omissions etc are entirely down to me. -

The Czechoslovak SPECIALIST COMPLETE TWENTIETH CENTURY SUBJECT INDEX: 1939 - 1999 Compiled by Anne G. Vondra Edited by Ludvik Z. Svoboda Published by The Society for Czechoslovak Philately, Inc. 4766 S. Helena Way Aurora, Colorado 80015 USA First Published 2003 COMPLETE TWENTIETH CENTURY SUBJECT INDEX INTRODUCTION The Society for Czechoslovak Philately was founded in March 1939 and the first issue of THE CZECHOSLOVAK SPECIALIST was published in May 1939. From that first issue until January 1990, it was printed as a monthly periodical. From January 1991 on, it became a bi-monthly publication with more than double the number of pages per issue. Wolfgang Fritzsche first compiled a SPECIALIST Index in 1964. In 1974, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Stollnitz put together the first Subject Index and combined it with a Priced Catalog of Postal Stationery. Anne Vondra thereafter indexed the period from 1974 to 1980. The two Indexes were combined into a Subject Index published in June 1980 as vol. 44, whole number 419 of THE CZECHOSLOVAK SPECIALIST. This Index was further expanded to a Cumulative Index encompassing the period from 1939 to 1992. But in the year 2000, Anne Vondra compiled a complete 60-year Subject Index embodying every issue of THE SPECIALIST published during its uninterrupted period of existence up to the end of the 20th century. The new Subject Index contains numerous abbreviations. Listed in alphabetical order is a glossary of these abbreviations: Ann. — anniversary Assn. — Association h. — halér (heller) Illus. — illustrated Int. — international k. — koruna (crown) k…. — Czech koruna (crown) k…s. — Czechoslovak koruna (crown) m/s. -

Everyone Knows the ‘Titanic’ Was an Unsinkable Ship
I Famous Past Expectations (Not updated – this is identical to the part in the Third Time Line) So just playing the devil’s advocate: everyone knows the ‘Titanic’ was an unsinkable ship. That was its design and everybody was sure about that. In retrospect, there are many interesting claims by experts and specialists that turned out to be way off. Here is a selective list of them, illustrating the absurdity of predictions of experts of their time, in hindsight, starting in the 4th century BC. • “The seat of the soul and the control of voluntary movement –in fact, of the nervous functions in general- are to be sought in the heart. The brain is an organ of minor importance. Aristotle, De motu animalium, 4th century BC *9) • According to the Maya Calendar the next great event of a certain nature will occur at December 21th, 2012. Popular expectations around this event ar that it will be: the end of this creation, the next pole shift or, the end of history and events as "novel" as the origin of life on Earth, which we could not possibly imagine. Other, more mundane speculations involve a worldwide catastrophe, such as a pole shift. 36 BCE http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesoamerican_Long_Count_calendar • “Bees are generated from decomposed veal.”St. Isedore of Seville (Spanish prelate and scholar) 7th Century AD *9) • “If the motion of the earth was circular, it would be violent and contrary to nature, and could not be eternal, since… nothing violent is eternal…. It follows, therefore, that the earth is not moved with a circular motion. -

Postal History & Philately
POSTAL HISTORY – AN INTRODUCTION PREAMBLE Postal History is not a Postage Stamp on a Cover (Envelope). It is a COVER with or without a Postage Stamp that will illustrate the use of the Postage Stamp or similar markings indicating payment. A Postal History attitude towards Postage Stamps will be: – • Why was it issued • What was it used for? The material that a Postal Historian collects will be chosen because it supports and illustrates the answers to those two questions. As far as the issues of New Zealand are concerned, the Handbooks on the Postage Stamps of NZ, issued by The Royal Philatelic Society of New Zealand, and in particular Volumes III and VII is the Postal History collectors “bible” Also overseas publications, that include Robson Lowe’s Encyclopedia of British Empire Postage Stamps, Raymond Sales, numerous Tomes “La Poste Maritime Françoise History Catalogue” etc. There are of course the very valuable publications issued by the Postal History Society of New Zealand, and their counterparts in Great Britain, Australia and the USA. More recent publications include those printed by The Royal Philatelic Society, London and the Stuart Rossiter Trust, not forgetting the publications privately published by Colin Tabeart. Whilst Stamp Collectors have many Stamp Catalogues showing all the stamps 1 issued including the Dealers selling price, however no such catalogues on Postal History exist. Some guides are available, but probably the best guide to value can be gleaned from Auction realizations, although this can be misleading, especially if there is only one person bidding. The true Postal Historian, must have access to a good and varied Reference Library, and have the time to carry out the necessary research to maximize the information that can be discovered about the item being investigated.
