Black ink, Medium Point (concessions to aging eyesight), and free. That reminds me: My alternate choice is the ballpoints that the hotel had sitting out at the clinic.

I like Bic pens because they're cheap. I also like mechanical pencils 0.05 mm. I always keep one of each in my pocket.

Sounds more like Air Coryell (route tree).

I prefer whatever I can steal off of the PE department's desk.

Best pens I've ever used were the ones we jacked from our Hilton room once.
Otherwise I have to join the Uni-ball crowd

When we started sending men into Space NASA discovered that ball point pens would not work in Zero Gravity. So their scientists spent 12 years and millions of dollars developing a pen that would not only write in Space but under water, at heat up to 300 degrees C and down to minus-150 degrees C. The Russians used pencils. Remember that next April 15. I had one of those

im a papermate inkjoy guy myself. I respect the G2, but my handwriting isn't up to snuff, and those are a little to "inky" for me. I need some room for error.

I love the G2 .7! But I always have several mechanical pencils to use in the box! I tend to erase a lot! Especially when the HC changes the call!

We have our live full-team contact drill monday. I'll post footage, so those of you not in FL know what you are (or arent!!!) missing.
Of course, monday afternoon is prime fishing time. Tarpon are in, black drum are spawning, cobia are moving down the beach...

How many years-millions of Rubles did that take them?

Simple and efficient, yet elegant and sexy (much like myself)...therefore second back through!

Ok ...so the 1st time I glanced at this thread I thought it may be the lamest topic ever
......and then I got my hands on one of those G2s.
Now I see what all the fuss is about.

The Russians used pencils. Remember that next April 15. This is not a true statement. First, Nasa did not develop the "space pen" at all, no tax dollars were used. It was designed by a private company (Fisher Pen Company) and NASA ordered 400 pens at $2.69 a pen. The USSR ALSO ordered 100 pens and 1000 ink cartridges. SECOND, (and has been mentioned in the thread) the pencil was NOT the best option, particularly after the Apollo 1 fire. Remember that next time we go to the polls to vote for leaders since most voters just take what they hear at face value rather than making decisions based on the truth.

i don't know the names of any pens. I just use whatever pen I get for free and I use it until the ink runs out or I lose it, then I find another free pen. The best one I have right now is a stylus/pen that I got free at a cell phone store.
