Donating to EFF
eleman:
When I see a stamp, I assume that someone paid good money for it, which could have been put to good use.
I don't see how EFF would get free postage, in a form that could not be used for another purpose, assuming US government isn't into donating stamps.

Could be a Franking Machine where the costs are being covered by a benefactor?

How do you know they didn't get those stamps donated to them so they could do this for people?

The stamp is not an actual stamp, but an imprint stating the price as well.

Yes, but how do you know those costs are not being covered by a Third Party?

Common things occur commonly, uncommon things do not. When you hear hoofbeats, don't think of zebras.

Now that has got to be one of my absolute favorite posts. :Thmbsup:
I have absolutely no idea what it means. But I love it! ;D
P.S. Sould I hear hoofbeats...I'm most likely hallucinating. (I live in the suburbs y'see.) ;) :P

It was indeed a truly brilliant response - that sounds oddly familiar. So either I've heard it before...or it just made perfect sense to me initially. Which - since no one else seems to have understood it - could be a very bad sign for both myself and eleman.. :-\
