  according to my sec 4 geo teacher, she said that..
  
  1. staples are made of metal. could sound the metal detector at the airport and could cause alarm.
  
  2. string is lighter. she said that the airplace company charges air fee per weight unit. since string is lighter, helps moe to cut cost.
  
  3. a good opportunity for all students to learn how to type dead knots.

  the nicer u tie... maybe the happier the marker...
  
  and he/she will mark your paper more leniently...
