I will be in Wyoming, far from Oregon where I am now where a clear sky is much more likely.

I will find a post office thanks to your posting this!

How will that event affect global warming and/or climate change? Can the green lobby do anything to stop it happening.

"....changes from total eclipse to full moon from the heat of a finger"

Except that solar eclipses only happen during a new moon. Minor point, however.

In anticipation of a solar eclipse that will cross 14 states and more than 1,100 cities this summer, the U.S. Postal Service has issued a commemorative stamp that changes from total eclipse to full moon from the heat of a finger.

America's day of darkness has been made into a "Forever" stamp. You can't make this stuff up.

Let’s hope it’s not cloudy that day.

For those who have never seen a total eclipse of the sun, it is definitely my opinion that it is very worth a journey to be in the path of totality. 99% eclipse is virtually worthless. At 90%, you wouldn't even know about the eclipse if you weren't told about it.

My plan is to drive down from NJ to maybe Kentucky the day before where I will have the option to seek clear in either direction.

And though I usually request flag stamps, maybe I'll buy a few eclipse stamps.

FTR, I've twice been in the path of totality. The first time was July 20, 1963, in Waterville Maine. Clouds obscured the sun for five minutes before to five minutes after totality. But I had better luck on March 7, 1970, on Nantucket Island. I believe this March 1970 eclipse was the last one where any location in the lower 48 States experienced totality.

How about we just stick with one Forever stamp and not waste money.

The Post Office is truly innovative. Next will be scratch and sniff Hilary Clinton. Just smells rotten.

Don’t forget, you can order online. They just mail them to you.

There is even a round, adhesive Forever starp, a round moon stamp and round baseball stamp!
