More postal mails than e-mails

E-MAIL ADDRESS. It has become the practice of most, if not all, columnists to write their e-mail address at the end of their columns. One columnist of an obscure weekly newspaper in an Eastern Visayan city does not follow this practice. Because he has no e-mail add. Instead he ends his column with: “Write to me at this postal address ...”

LETTERS. Would you believe,” says an Ear informer, “that he receives more letters from readers than the other columnists in his paper?” His column is a public service column where lost personal effects are announced and also obits of community residents who passed away.
