Was I lucky or special?
I have been stamped since. Perhaps it is a new thing to use up your pages faster.
I know I'm responding to an old post, but given the poster is still active on FT... anyway, did you have GE at the time? Once I added GE/Nexus, my interactions with US agents never involve them stamping my passport (same for Canadian ones). Occasionally I have to speak to them--kiosks down, or a big "X" or "O" on my slip from the kiosk--but they stamp the slip, not my passport, when I do.

Not the typical tourist one they remove when you leave, right? I've had them staple that one in over other stamps, but then they take it out at exit passport control. This is a work or long-time visa, or a visa for a non-visa-on-arrival country?
