Here's the first page after the title, so you can admire Roy's girly handwriting:
The reason I'm mentioning this is because my photocopy was stapled together, and I had to remove the staple so I could get the pages to lie flat in my scanner. Here is that 30-year-old staple, to the left of one from my current stapler for comparison:
That is one mighty staple. It's some kind of tempered steel, stronger than a safety pin and with legs twice as long as a modern staple's. I doubt I could even fit one like that in my stapler, which is a shame — it would laugh at the inkjet paper that's been giving me problems recently, ha ha ha! They don't make them like that any more — or at least, if they do then it's for construction work, not for holding sheets of paper together. It's just the size of it: the amount of steel that went into making staples 30 years ago must have been enormous!
What a staple.
