SonofZ3:
Fold a 1000 and send them to Japan for the World Peace Prokect for Children:
To send a thousand cranes to the Children's Monument in Hiroshima's Peace Park, string them on garlands of 100 cranes each, and mail them to:
Office of the Mayor
City of Hiroshima
6-34 Kokutaiji-Machi
1 Chome Naka-ku, Hiroshima 730
Japan

According to legend you'll have a wish granted. Thats bullshit, but its still fun.

also, Japanese scientists want to fly origami airplanes from space down to Earth. Seriously:

That is a lot of cranes. Also probably a lot of postage.

Lines:
Yeah. Think of the size and weight of a box of 1000 paper cranes with international shipping. Eek. (If it was in the US, I might actually do it though. It'd be kinda cool!)

SonofZ3:
Its not hard to fold a thousand, I have 2 thousand on my apartment walls at the moment. I use scrap pieces from other folding and make cranes from them, when I get about half a shoebox full I put them on garlands. Postage may be a little though, but considering its supposed to be for world peace, I think its understandable. If I can ever manage not to want to hang mine where I live I plan to send some over.

HellStorm:
I hate them >=[
I just spent ages trying to make paper cranes
it did not work.
