@chrisfholm I firmly believe that opinions are like farts--just because you have one does not mean you need to share it. Or that anyone wants to hear it.
Sorry, Chris, for polluting your replies...
@danacmrn I guess I'm lucky enough to have found my one true pen. It's the same one I carried for 1000 miles on foot. It has a flat spot worn in it where my finger sits. It gets a new sip of ink every couple days, and it still writes great, ~200,000 words later.
Yeah, we're buds.
@stevehillwriter Reminds me of a Car Talk bit. I might be getting the premise wrong, but I think a poor teen borrowed his dad's car. Only the kid was mortified when he broke the 710 cap. He went to an auto parts store. They laughed a little and sold him a new oil cap.
