Clippy, does the color of paperclips matter to you?

You mean the spectral readings? Yes, that's one way I determine whether it's metal.

What do you think of the red paperclip story?

I'm glad humans are finally starting to raise awareness of paperclips, though I don't know why the story was followed after the first trade.
