    Default Howdy

    I'm a long time fountain pen user. I've been a serious collector only the last seven years or so.

    Not a big contributor, but will jump in if I think I can add to the discussion.

    I have both vintage and modern pens, with my current interest being more to modern versions. But I've been through the rabbit hole of experimenting with flex, nib grinds, minor repairs, and numerous manufacturers; not to exclude pricing.

    Anyway, thanks for letting me come board.

    Ouch! We know how that can go.

    BTW, I recognized Albert right away. When I used to read the strip, the true meanings went over my young head, but I got to know all the characters.

    Ah yes, "We have met the enemy, and he is us."

    (Okay, that was Pogo and not Albert, but they both arose from the fecund pen of Walt Kelly.)

    (Hmmm. I wonder what kind of pen that was?)

    Anyway, howdy!
