    Default Dallas Pen Show 2017: Of Pens and People

    While things from the show are still fresh in my mind, I put them in a form of a write-up on my blog. I am not an active blogger, but I do have one.

    Will, that is a great write-up! Between your coverage and Franz's report (Pt. 2 to come) on SF, if people read these and DON'T want to make the effort to attend a show, they are nuts. I especially liked this summation of yours:

    "Nothing stood out so clearly to me than the fact that the pen show is exciting because of the pens and the ink, but it became memorable because of the people."
    "When Men differ in Opinion, both Sides ought equally to have the Advantage of being heard by the Publick;
    and that when Truth and Error have fair Play, the former is always an overmatch for the latter."

    ~ Benjamin Franklin
