Bendability?!?  You *bend* your paperclips?  Are you insane?

Yes ...and yes!


All of my paperclips are still in their original packages, wrapped in
special protective non-volatile wrappers.  This is after thoroughly
de-acidifying the package material, of course.

Of course. Do you use a special brand of wrappers? Personally I find the ones,
made from Finish Woodland better than the ones made from Amazonian Tropical
Forests. But ofcourse, I make my boxes from Lego.. (whoops...ON-toppic again)
