Let's change the subject. To stamps. Yes indeed, the little sticky things one affixes to envelopes. Daydream for just a moment…
…Here's your nightmare. A postage stamp was produced in Burundi in 1945 and is considered the world's most valuable collectors' stamp, primarily because of a printing error. It seems that the dot on the "i" in Burundi was forgotten in one batch. And before the error was caught, a few went out. So this is the world's rarest postage stamp. Now you, being the clever type that you are, get hold of some of the regular stamps and carefully erase the dot on the i. Then you sell them as the very rare type. But horror of horrors, your customers call in the police. As the police take you away shrieking and babbling you protest: "Why me? I didn't add anything. Furs are treated, fruit is treated, everything is treated nowadays." But the cops do not listen. Instead you are thrown in some hell hole of a jail with inmates whose only retort is "Why you? Why you ? Ha ha ha ha hee hee ha ha ha……… bend over."
