Shaun asked Manny Rayner:

Is it true that it is hard to "soar with eagles" when you are "surrounded by turkeys"? Also, if the "world is truly getting smaller", then why do postage stamp prices keep going up? Please advise. Curious minds want to know, Manny, and I heard you had ALL the answers to life's persistent questions.

Manny Rayner I am afraid I must correct a few misconceptions here. Rather disappointingly, new ornithological research shows that eagles have also started to vote for Christmas. In addition, the discovery of dark energy suggests that the universe will continue to expand, so the world is not in fact getting smaller. It was however somewhat opportunistic of the US Postal Service to use this as an excuse for raising stamp prices, since few letters are sent to addresses outside the Local Group.
