I enjoy writing with a fountain pen. Don’t ask me to explain it.
I have a problem. You might have no sympathy. I am experiencing FWP with my fountain pens: The ink seems to disappear over night. I did not have this problem in the past. I am wondering if it has something to do with the ink, which used to be made in Germany, is now made in China. I don’t need to listen to other people’s conspiracy theories. I can come up with my own.
I will live with this difficulty. Bear with me as I try to figure it out.

Assuming the ink is an aqueous fluid, I doubt that evaporation overnight is the issue. I suspect internal hemorrhaging, although I can't imagine where the ink would be leaking to.
ReplyDeleteCertainly not into the pen or onto the desk. Maybe it is a secret ink tax that the Democrats have passed in one of their bills.

I guess any corporate levy would be an inc. tax.
