Great Pointed What?

We came across these folks picketing in Washington Square Park yesterday and we really dig their message. We've posted the first few paragraphs of their mission statement below. Check out their site for the whole story.

"To most of the world, Great Pointed Archers are known by the derogatory name rat.They are considered an annoyance, filthy pests, and animals to be avoided at all costs. Throughout history they have been ridiculed, hunted, and blamed for many of humanity's woes. In reality, however, these animals aren't evil, they aren't the enemy, and they no longer have to be called rats.
The immediate goal of this website is to replace the offensive name rat with the untainted, and beautiful name Great Pointed Archer."

I'll post more Japanese singing entrees as I find them.
