Just think of delivery as the fixed rate portion of your bill. It's always about 4c per kwh. The supply portion of your bill is variable (starting at 11c per kwh) and steps up the more you use. They provide the breakdown in case you want to change your energy supplier, but it's much easier to just look at your total rate (i.e. 15c per kwh). If you're looking to cut down on your bill, you should check out some of PSEG's Community Solar partners. I've shared my experience using Solar Landscape on here a few times. The rate written into the contract is guaranteed to be 15% less than PSEGs, and you can cancel at any time.

It's quite high. Are you looking at an estimated bill or an actual meter reading? Estimates can be considerably higher than actual meter readings, but they should average out over time. If it's an estimate, you can call PSEG and send them a picture of your actual meter reading or have them send someone out for one.
It's normal for electricity bills to have Supply (generation) fees and Delivery (transmission) fees. They are separate because some people opt into alternative forms of Supply (i.e. renewable). I believe these charges are also regulated differently.

The article mentions five contenders immediately emerged and then just doesn't identify them? What kind of reporting is this?

Since you went through insurance, you may get better details through your Explanation of Benefits (EOB) through your insurance provider. They usually have pretty good breakdowns of what was billed (date, units, etc...) and what the coverage and remainder is.

Congrats on the new baby! Was this for a typical delivery? Surprised to see the costs so much higher than the average childbirth cost in NJ

There's a Cort Furniture in Hasbrook Heights. They carry used and refurbished HM. They had Aerons for $350 and Sayl's for $150 at the beginning of covid. Stock varies quite a bit so if you have something particular in mind (i.e. HM Aeron Tall and Wide) then give them a call ahead

Just curious, why do you feel it's so important to announce that you're recording the call? NJ is a one party consent state, so you are able to record the call without announcing.

Jiang Nan is the best on this side of the river. Was a little surprised when it came out with pineapple chunks (on the side), but it works quite well

So you're saying you'd be cool with electric school buses only make sense if we put snow plows on them?

There should be 2 locks on the mailbox. One that the postal worker uses, and another which you (the resident) uses. There's no special process to change the resident lock. You can do it yourself, or hire a locksmith. If you need to change the lock the postal worker uses, then you just need to make sure you use a USPS STD-4C compliant lock, and your letter carrier will be able to open it
