    ..."enter you zip code" ???????? Do I get a free gift or something?......you know,no matter how long I look at the fly zipper on my pants,I still cant find a zip code,they dont exist outside the U.S.A.,,,its a fact,no one else in the world knows what a zip code is,and I have thought for decades, "what the hell is a zip code?",,,is it post that travels faster than light?,,,in London we have "post codes",its simple,and it has worked well for hundreds of years,,,you know,v is allmost tempted to put my post code on line,but I just cant handle 98 tons of fan mail a week.,Sem,v tells you from the heart,it hard work being a superstar.

    zip is an acronym for "zone improvement plan", and it is an american version of a postal code. it's basically the same thing as a british postcode. and i don't thing british postcodes are hundred years old. i don't think any country had a postal code system (a full-fledged one) until the late 1950s.

    my grandmother worked for the post office - the stories she told....

    droopy,"zone improvement plan",,,I am now the only person outside the U.S. that understands it,but you must admit post codes are cool,I can put nothing more than a post code on a letter,and it still get to its destination.,does that work in the U.S. ?
