a newsletter? Can´t remember the witty thing that was said
two newsletters ago that you want so badly to repeat to your friends
so that they´ll think you´re every bit as pathetic
cool as we are? Here´s the place to take care of that.
Extracurricular-The non-newsletter, but still written, IPS stuff.
Application-You wanna hang with all the cool kids right? Well how´s about fillin´ out this application and hangin´ with us instead.
IPS Info-The story of us.
Email the IPS-Yeah right, like you´re not that bored.
IPS Background Info
Ever wish there was a group of people who like all the stuff that everyone else says sucks? Well your prayers have been answered!
The International Pectin Society was established in response to the following definition:
Pectin - any of a group of polysaccharides that are found in plant tissues, the solutions of which readily form a gel. They cause settling into a jelly {PECTIC}
You see, we, meaning Olga and Angela, found out during high school that our lunches always included at least one pectin product (we read labels meticulously.) When we looked pectin up to find out what it was, we discovered that it is often used as a substitute for gelatin! We avoid gelatin because Olga is a semi-vegetarian and Angela is an ovo-lacto vegetarian. (Note: We acknowledge that vegetarianism may not be right for all.) In our newsletters, we include information about the benefits of a pectin-rich diet, entertainment, and sociopolitical issues. We would like to locate more people like ourselves--if they exist--so that we can share resources and amuse each other.
