   They're giving all the conference attendees lightscribe pens. Curious to try them even if they are ballpoints. #xinnovate !nibs

   Found my silicone grease—now I can ink up the Edison! Like other snmall round objects it had been appropriated by the kitten. !nibs #pens

   Uniball Jetstream is my new pen of choice for use with Field Notes. Very smooth, no bleed. !nibs

     @icheyne How are they for bleed-through? That has been my big problem with using gel pens with Field Notes.

     @datainadequate G2 ink is pretty good. You can even use Mont Blanc ink refills http://is.gd/7yc9Y

   Strange. A little detergent and cold water and the (Noodler's) inkstain is almost invisible. Is cotton not cellulose? !nibs

     According to teh Intarwebs, cotton is pure cellulose. I expected cellulose-reactive dye to be more tenacious. http://pk.gd/LYV

   Woke up, opened my journal, took the cap off my eyedropper-filler and deposited a capful of Noodlers on my journal and comforter. !nibs

   It shouldn't surprise me that my pens are more reliable and useful than inkjet printers. The pens were a lot more expensive. !nibs

     @fo0bar Thanks for that. I'll try forcing myself to print once a week. My 4019 printed 12,000 pages over seven years on original cartridge.

     @splicer But the ink for your pens is dirt cheap compared to inkjet printer ink! !nibs

   Just filled my Montblanc 149 with FPN Galileo Manuscript. Looks like I stabbed someone with it. !nibs

    I was really hoping I'd like Montblanc Racing Green. Oh well. Now I'm hoping I'll like MB Sepia. I like the bottles anyway. !nibs

      @bitb The Birdies are great! My Knights and Bamboos too. Pilot seems to be able to do no wrong. !nibs

    However, the more I use the LAMY 2000, the closer it gets to feeling as good as the Safari. !nibs

    I got a LAMY 2000 and liked it, so decided to try a LAMY Safari for fun. Ended up liking the Safari more! !nibs
