London.pm Adopts a Camel

davorg writes "London.pm has adopted a camel at London Zoo. What this means is that we give them a stack of money which they then use to look after the camel and in return we get our name on a plaque on the camel house. More details are available here.

There's a good chance that other zoos run a similar scheme, so perhaps other Perl Monger groups would consider following our lead."

I think it may have come up at some point...

Does the stack of money pay for a placard that reads "This camel is a trademark of O'Reilly, used with permission"?

Good point. I don't think so. I'm hoping thaT O'Reilly don't notice. Please don't tell them :)

I was under the impression the camel would be used to take them to the conference.
