on 7/21/2008 fountain pens are resilient as well, though. my phileas fountain pen fell onto tile floor from five feet directly onto its nib. i thought it was toast, as its nib was bent 90 degrees away from where it should be. but i bent it back into shape and it's been just fine, if a little broader, ever since.

on 1/17/2008 Inkjet ink contains a variety of harmful chemicals and is totally unsuitable for use in a fountain pen. India ink is also unsuitable since it contains shellac. Follow the author's advice and use only inks designed specifically for fountain pens!
