@Meshelly I think their strategy is this- a sense of obligation.

I once worked in a jewelry store. One of the unwritten tactics was if you *went through all the torment and toil of opening up a case and putting a piece of jewelry in the customer's hand*.... they felt obligated. Indebted.

I kid you not, it worked about 60% of the time, and it cost me nothing.

@Meshelly we've had organizations send us real paper money in their requests for donations. Matter of fact, it happened today.

We put that money in our dog's little purse. She's got about $10 now (coins and bills).

Not once have we sent a donation to these organizations.

@erdal just so you know, I'm going to be wrong ALL THE TIME

I think people would enjoy this. Set something up.

@lattera the only cool thing about headwind is, if you close your eyes (OMG DON"T DO THAT), it feels like you're going waaay faster.
@erdal I'm hoping it would be a little like 'Wait wait, don't tell me' or 'QI'.

Oh, yes, it's that time of night where - despite having a lovely day- my brain has to analyze everything because it's sure positive absolutely confident that I've done *something* wrong, and thinking about all the wrong things somehow makes things better.

Great.

@NattyGov we've got them in the US markets.

I love raisins.

@pikwik I don't know about Instagram, but a couple of the astronauts have Twitter accounts, like France's Thomas Pesquet -

@pikwik if so, we've sent the fine people of the ISS on a fool's errand
