Things one learns in the post office

Fact of the day: international postage for a letter (this being an item in an envelope weighing less than one ounce) from the US to anywhere else in the world (not on the North American Continent) is 94 cents. This seems semi-relevant, since several of us will be departing to bits of the world not on the North American Continent at various points throughout the year. I think it will cost more than 94c to get there though.
