7. Well it wasn't mine. There is an original thread link that someone posted
that gives the story.

I just wanted to know how many of us were participating in this constructive exercise and how many of us were just fighting against one another.

I've posted the links to the threads on other blogs and boards to get others to participate as well.

4. And I have handed out an entire box as well
Once the question is asked, by the time I finish talking there is always someone that wants one.

I went into work the other day and was approached by two different people asking me for a clip. I had not spoken to them directly, but someone I had given a clip to previously had spoken to them.

That's how it should work!

6. Atman has a graphic that explains the whole paper clip concept...
...that's the perfect size for those computer-printed business cards. Great handouts at Progressive functions. Check his site or PM him if you're interested.

13. So is a paperclip a better protest...
than the "no W" button I wear all the time?

Seems rather obscure...

17. It's not a protest.
It's symbol of solidarity, a way for us to identify like-minded souls.
