    Default What name for a coffee house only for fountain pen geeks?

    I need your help here people. If you were going to open a coffee house where your only customers were fountain pen users, what would you name it?

    I thought of: Baystate Java
    Whatta ya think?

    So are eriquito and I the only ones who drink coffee? That doesn't seem right.

    As a C.S. Lewis/G.K. Chesterton/Dorothy Sayers/J.R.R. Tolkien, I appreciate the above, Mellock.

    (As for my suggestion, I find myself wondering just how many pens you could ink with an entire cup of ink....)

    At the risk of being declared a shill for Herbin, how about Cafe des Iles? Only FP users will really follow the reference.

    Actually, were I to name a "coffee house where your only customers were fountain pen users," I'd probably call it "Closed."

    Love the sentiment, though!
