The last ones who told me I could learn from a plush toy were my daughters. Of course, I acknowledged. Yet, it dawned on me: after 16 years of life, the PHP plush has achieved so much! It went to the White House and Antarctica; it spawned a hundred thousand offsprings and a jet-set generation of collectors; it built bridges within and outside the community.

The PHP elephpant is the living symbol of the PHP community, straight from the genius of Vincent Pontier. It is a whole character, running across the world and changing colors all the time. Everybody need elephpant love !

Nowadays, it is alive and kicking. It still reviews my code, casting an odd look to me, once in while. No one can have enough elePHPant.
