No, worse. The developers COULD have chosen to build TV on the ocean, but they have absolutely no control over where the U.S. government builds a post office.

And for the previous post---how boring would TOTV be without the "snarky" comments? Besides, the OP wasn't exactly all sugar and spice. I'm not sure what the point was---that everyone should have a post office in their backyard? It may not be close to YOUR house, but it's close to someone's, and if was closer to yours then it would be further away from his. And if you can get in your car and drive to a "hamlet" of a few hundred people that has a post office, then you can certainly drive a few miles to the nearest place to mail a package.
