P.O.P. Support

Here is a list of some valiant people who have rallied to the POP cause and pictures of the paperclip families they are protecting.

Je me rallie a ta cause avec ferveur. En effet voila quelques mois
que je protege jalousement toute une famille de paperclips dans le
tiroir de mon bureau. De temps a autre je leur fait prendre l'air
et je les nourris de quelques feuilles de papier (propres), en ayant
toutefois soin de ne pas leur causer d'indigestion en excedant leur
taux d'absorbtion de feuilles, ce qui leur causerait des flatulences
et gonflement de l'abdoment. (tres difficile a soigner)
Des que le temps se couvre et que l'air se charge d'humidite, je
les range vite dans mon tiroir, afin de les preserver de toute
oxydation. Alors je peux en parler en connaissance de cause:
aidons les paperclips et autres clips!

	Many thanks to you, Polo, who brought to light the unbearable
	existence of today's paperclips.
	 
	Fortunately, and it is with a great relief that I can announce to 
	you that paperclips living in my desk do not have to suffer such 
	conditions. 

        Here are some examples which, IMHO, are significant:

	+ Work: each paperclip is assured to work only with the finest
          documents (e.g. Internet drafts). All other documents not
	  complying with severe quality rules are stappled (e.g. Microsoft
	  leaflets).

        + Social life: social reinsertion of paperclips is strongly 
	  encouraged and supported. As an example, I can tell you 
	  the story of a paperclip who suffers from arthritic deformity,
	  resulting in the impossibility for him to carry on in its job. 
	  He is now working as a cdrom and MAC FD emergency opener. 
 	  Wonderful story, isn't it ?
	               
		       Another example of paperclips' social life: I
	  know a paperclip (a friend of mine) who is sharing his
	  life with a magnet and, guess what, they are pretty happy 
	  together (Furthermore, the family tends to grow and grow ...)     

	+ Art and culture: I've heard a rumor (from the third drawer) that
          some paperclips have gathered into an organization promoting 
	  art and culture within the paperclip community. One of their 
	  first exhibition will be aimed at 'live' sculpture (i.e. paperclips
	  from the Barclipnum Circus will represent everyday objects 
	  (e.g. necklaces) using own their bodies).  	

	
	This concludes my "petite bafouille", hoping that more and more
	people will take care of their paperclips.

To which I can only add "Here!Here!" Take a look at Recursif's friend...

By the way, RARE stands for "Reseaux Associes pour la Recherche Europeene."
