 		[QUESTION] Read this if you have sent or recieved snail mail
Yeah, I was pretty creeped out when I found that three of the 220 sets of coordinates are within walking distance of my house--I had sent a card to Margaret about a week earlier. Turns out I'm not alone--plenty of you have reacted that coordinates have not just been in your hometown, and not just in your neighborhood, but practically just outside your window.

So, post here if you have sent snail mail, and indicate whether or not you have sent snail mail or otherwise have reason to believe that the Operator or the Spider could have your mailing address. We'll see if it has any correlation, major or minor, to where the coordinate clusters are. Let's keep it short; post only if your post meets the criteria above. Thanks!

An idea for you to try and see how the points compare. Maybe you tried it, but you didn't mention it. Use Mapquest to plot your exact address, and then also use it to plot the coordinate that is closest to you.
Here's the lat/long part of Mapquest:
http://www.mapquest.com/maps/latlong.adp

Compare the two and tell us how close they really are to each other. Print the maps out if you can and lay them over one another and hold them up to a light.

That's a nice idea, but I have a better one: exit my house and walk five blocks to the closest set of coordinates. ^_^

Seriously though, I would prefer it if you only reply to this thread in response to what I had asked; it's not because I don't want to hear your suggestions, it's because I want to keep this thread short. So, has anybody else sent or recieved snail mail? How about those of you who have gotten boxes of honey? How close to you are the closest set of coordinates to you?
