No problem. I've got lots of time around here, anyway.

Can't say that I understand it much more than you do, if it makes you feel any better. If someone ever asked me to fix a car or splice film reels or repair their air conditioner, I could do those things in record time. But I can barely figure out how to make my communicator function, let alone wrap my head around how those jump things work.

I do not even know what any of those things are. I have learned to use this communicator device but it seems a ridiculous way to communicate when it would be simpler to use paper and pen. Or to speak directly to a person, but it hardly seems that anyone does so. I do not see people call on one another, or gather together except in times of danger.

Pen and paper requires more time and resources, and we don't really have an effective postal service here to make it work. Not that it makes me any more comfortable with the technology here - if I need to talk to someone, I usually check to see if they're home first.

What kind of gathering do you mean?

It would be a simple thing to engage a postman. [ The rest makes sense, though, despite Mattie's preferences. ]

Any kind of gathering. Like a dance, or a singalong.

If somebody here had the time and was willing to take the job, then sure.

["Well, if Howard were around..." Murphy thinks, but isn't sure what he'd actually make of the postman from Silent Hill showing up around these parts.]

Walked into what looked like someone's birthday party once. Didn't stick around, though. But I know there are a few who have that idea.
