@mariyadelano @thewritertype Went to their website and, gotta admit, i was surprised. I was expecting some $500 fountain pens. Refillable gel pens for $2? Cheap A5 pads with grid ruling? If they're as good as you say, thank you!
@TorbjornBjorkman @mmasnick @mizblueprint @Popehat Plumbing. I'll try anything but plumbing.
@Kurt Thank you for working for such an awesome org.
@nickdmiller Out of curiosity, how many countries do they think are down there?

@Kbrad That's quite beautiful. Thank you.
