[edit] Spiral notebooks

Very funny "Canada ... inhabited by people incapable of properly using spiral notebooks". How do you add hole punched paper to a spiral notebook? A duotang is a poor man's 3 ring binder with the advantage that you can stack them since it is not an unwieldy triangle shape. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.148.223.4 (talkcontribs) 16:35, 20 October 2006

[edit] "Rarely seen outside of Canada"

Is this true? Is there any evidence? I was under the impression that they're quite common in the United States. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.24.249.74 (talk) 03:51, 21 December 2006 (UTC).

OF course they're common in the US. However, I don't think they're referred to as "Duotangs" outside Canada. As an expat, I've been given several strange looks at Staples in the US when I was looking for them. Usually just called a "folder" or more specifically, " a folder-with-metal-prongs" —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sdeeyre (talkcontribs) 18:15, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
