I simply write 'po 4213' and leave it to others to figure out what I mean. - OAE -- aka OAE Feb 27, 11:13 4

  - certainly explains many secret stalker problems -- nm - charlie Feb 27, 11:17 2
    - (Eh. As far as I know, OAE has never been a stalker issue. She sends and receives.) -- nm - kelly Feb 27, 11:21
    - in the context of an address together with a nine-digit Zip Code . . . - OAE -- aka OAE Feb 27, 11:19
P.O. -- nm - MDH Feb 27, 11:11
PO is the official post office abbrev (like ST or AVE or RR or CT). -- nm - amanda Feb 27, 11:11

I randomly choose one period to use -- nm - oblique Feb 27, 11:08 1
