#Gogoro electric scooters offered a unique battery-swapping way to charge up. Then #Kymco announced the #Ionex, which offers 4 ways. Now Gogoro thinks it's being a hero by announcing a 2nd way, making it the "world's only dual system"...but they're still 2 behind the competition. They need to offer home chargers, too, if they hope to compete with Kymco's customer-friendly system.

I understood what you meant. Paper, like pens & inks, is a very personal thing. I think I'm in the minority preferring ivory/cream paper.
I don't write many letters. I bought some 68gsm cream Tomoe River. It's a bit thin for me, though.
@LN
I'm fine with the 90gsm paper. I actually prefer ivory/cream to white anyway. My preference for notebook would be Life (L!FE) Noble's in A4 (the blue cover), but Kiowa Pecan takes forever to dry on it, so Rhodia it is. Also, the color of the ink is richer with Rhodia paper.
@LN How is MUJI for fountain pens?
Have you ever tried this Rhodia notebook: http://fournituresbureautiques.com/fb/prd/1437186/rhodia-cahier-souple-rhodiarama-taupe-form ?
@LN
OK. Thanks for the offer. I'll try to let Google Translate do as much of the legwork as possible so that I'm not constantly bothering you.
Either you're a pretty content expat, or else Canadian stores stock most of what you need. Most foreigners here have to order stuff online from overseas.
