History:

Created in 2012 by yours truly at the Cabinet Room, London, England.

Trying to think of an appropriate 'pear' name, I remembered the Swedish adventurer Per Lindstrand, who, with entrepreneur Richard Branson, was the first to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a hot-air balloon on 2-3 July 1987. The combination of miss remembering his name and my dyslexic spelling gave me Pearlinstrum.
