Frank came home from MIT the other day puzzled. All of a sudden he’s getting many more requests for autographs than usual, and he couldn’t figure out why.
This morning, GoogleAlert probably told me why.
Frank’s response last month to a request from Poland to send autographed photos “for charity” got enthusiastic publicity on a website devoted to the business of fan mail. (The business of fan mail?)
Hello all, at first I’d like to ask You for adding me to the 10 $Allposters Gift Certificate, because the prize would be very helpful for the charity I’m collecting autographs for.
Thank You in advance, board of directors!
I got a digital camera from my brother, so now I’ll post maaaaaaaaaaany recent successes for my charity, stay tunedFrank Wilczek – Nobel Prize Winner

Mr. Wilczek is awesome! He sent me many autographed photos, and a huge poster that is not on the photo.
Heh. “No good deed goes unpunished.”
