Is it pronounced "paper"?

  Probably a play on papyrus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papyrus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papyrus)

  I think pa-pee-root.

  My best guess is that the pronunciation is identical to 'papyrus,' though with an 'o' in place of the 'u' -- so something like pah-pyhr-ohs or pah-pyhr-oh-ess.
