Grandpa Lived Green II

In order to fight Global Warming, some Australian has
come up with a "novel" idea......This young "baby boomer"
type wants business offices to use writing pens that
use refillable ink.......Duh......

What ever happened to the Shaffer, Waterman and
Parker fountain pens......Remember them.......They
had a little lever on the side which compressed a
rubber bladder inside and "loaded" the pen with
liquid ink from a bottle.......

Along came the Bic ball point pen and the young
"boomers" had no interest in a fountain pen....They
now had a "throw-away" pen.......Life became a little
more easy for them........

A message for these now "olde boomers".......If you
want to make the world "green".......Get your kids
to do it, not your grandparents......Good Luck.......
It is a good topic to discuss after your solved the,
"I smoked pot in '66, but I do not want you to"
problem.......Pumps
