[Heathkit] shipping.. an old sore spot

[Carl]

With me its FedWrex that destroys the incoming packages as their shipping 
customers appear to have the lowest packing IQ. Ive not had an outgoing UPS 
destroyed yet, BUT I know how to pack. Im also tired of UPS bashing, as all 
package companies, including USPS, are handled pretty much the same.
