Just as a reminder to folks who may be looking to try different inks (including you, Al!), the Pear Tree Pen Company offers ink samples, provided in small vials, for you to try for yourself - in your pen, on your paper, and on your time. If I may say so myself, the price is pretty darn reasonable. End of horn-tooting.

Well, Roger, what I'm really looking for is a sample of the Diamine Green. Someone, in the last six months or so, said it was a good substitute for the old Skrip Green. So, I'm looking forward to Michael's note!
