WALLINGFORD, Conn. —
Edmund Laskowski sent a letter to himself so he would be sure to remember what a special day it was Thursday. The town had a rare day when its ZIP code, 06492, matched the date, 06-4-92.
“It makes you wonder whether there are psychic powers at work here,” said Marshall Gaither, 29, a postal clerk who attended a celebration outside the Wallingford Post Office.
The post office offered special stamp cancellations that featured a hand-drawn representation of the Wallingford seal.
