I would still much rather send a letter than phone someone).<br /><br />Of course, some people may feel that letters in general are becoming obsolete. I don't know anyone who communicates with distant friends or relatives primarily by letters rather than phone calls, email or social media. I don't think the letter is dead by any means, but most of the mail we receive at our house is junk mail, mail order catalogues, charity appeals, bank statements or bills (with the occasional government information leaflet), so I can see why some people might not automatically associate mail with a formal-but-personal communication any more.Daniel Saundershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07087956908558706584noreply@blogger.com
