Postcard from the past
本文作者: Calvin Pollak
IN an age of instant (即时的) communication, we sometimes use the term “snail (蜗牛) mail” to refer to ordinary postal mail. The post, like a snail, is known for moving slowly. But even a snail would’ve probably beaten Bert Jacobson’s postcard from Pennsylvania home to his mother in Oklahoma, two states in the US. The postcard took 46 years to arrive, according to The Associated Press. Mama Jacobson finally received the card on Friday, Feb 8, 2013.
