Bugün öğrendim ki: "Amerika Erteleyiciler Kulübü" diye bir organizasyon var. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania merkezli kuruluş amacını "bugün yapılması gerekmeyen şeyleri daha sonraya bırakarak rahatlama felsefesini" teşvik etmek olarak tanımlıyor.
Procrastinators' Club of AmericaFormation| 1956 ---|--- Founder| Les Waas Founded at| [Philadelphia, PA](/wiki/Philadelphia,_PA "Philadelphia, PA") Type| Club Secretary-treasurer | Joseph Weiss The **Procrastinators' Club of America** is based in [Philadelphia, Pennsylvania](/wiki/Philadelphia,_Pennsylvania "Philadelphia, Pennsylvania"), and describes its purpose as promoting "the philosophy of relaxation through putting off until later those things that needn't be done today."[1] It was established in 1956 by Les Waas, who remained its acting president as of 2011.[2] As of 1995, the club had an international membership of about 6,000 people.[3] The club publishes a newsletter called "Last Month's Newsletter".[4] In 1966, the club held an anti-war demonstration, against the [War of 1812](/wiki/War_of_1812 "War of 1812"), with signs saying "Procrastinators protest the War of 1812!" and "Dolly Bird - Tell Pres. Madison We Want Peace!"[5] During the [United States Bicentennial](/wiki/United_States_Bicentennial "United States Bicentennial"), the club vowed to picket the [Whitechapel Bell Foundry](/wiki /Whitechapel_Bell_Foundry "Whitechapel Bell Foundry"), who cast the [Liberty Bell](/wiki/Liberty_Bell "Liberty Bell"), with signs "We got a lemon" and "What about the warranty?" The foundry told the protesters that it would be glad to replace the bell—so long as it was returned in the original packaging.[6][7] In 1976, the club awarded the [Betsy Ross Bridge](/wiki/Betsy_Ross_Bridge "Betsy Ross Bridge") in Philadelphia the "Award to Come Later" award for its long delayed opening.[8] Lester Morton "Les" Waas, the founder of the club, died in 2016 aged 94 years.[9][10] Those that were close to Les have stated that he was late to his own funeral.
