we often split off into abstruse tangents,
like galaxies spit out from a black hole.

Gravity usually brings us back on topic.

"Rescue at sea " stamp
and the morse code hidden in the perfs
Can you see the dots and dashes?
Can you guess what they read ?(rescue hint)

Nice pics Nells!

You have thrown a spanner in the works

Yours are power insulators
the lines do not carry the spoken word
so "communication" is not addressed.

I'd say No, not really pertinent,
but the Jury is still out.

Same picture but different stamp


Very similar picture, but different. The propellers were not included on the $5 stamp, for some reason.
