Watching Classic Mac Gaming’s video on Glider awakened something in me.

Comparing the cross-compatible Pilot CON-40, Majohn A1, and Jinhao 10 converters extended and retracted.

The Jinhao has the shortest travel distance, around 13mm. Majohn is about 17mm. Both confirmed with a micrometer. CON-40 is about 16mm, but couldn't measure directly.

Explains why the J10/20 converters run out of ink faster, but doesn't explain why CON-40 never seems to fill as much as either of the other two. The agitator parts interfering, perhaps?

Last week I found a 100ml bottle of one of my favourite Herbin #fountainPen #ink colours (Poussière de Lune, or moon dust) for only a little more than the glass bottled 30ml version!

Open notebook with handwritten text from the post at the top of the page with additional text: “The colour of the four candles is also significant. Three candles are typically violet, or purple, and one is rose. Purple dyes were at one time extremely rare and costly and therefore associated with royalty. The Roman Catholic Church used purple in the priests’ robes and vestments at Christmas and Easter to honour Jesus. The colour purple is associated with penitence in the Catholic church and is said to remind Christians that Advent is the season to spiritually prepare the soul to receive Christ. The three purple candles in the Advent wreath are meant to symbolize hope, peace, and love. Some also believe these three purple candles are to represent penance, sorrow, and longing expectation. These candles are lit on the first, second, and fourth Sundays of Advent. The rose candle, which symbolizes joy, is usually lit on the third Sunday of the Advent season. This third Sunday is also called ‘Gaudete’ Sunday, which is Latin for ‘rejoice’.” — DeeAnn Mandryk et al., Canadian Christmas Traditions, 2005. Below the text is a card with hooded monster with an orange face and skeletal hands under a crescent moon; a green-blue pen and a gray plastic dip pen; a swatch of deep purple ink with gold sheen and a teardrop shaped bottle of same and a swatch of pigmented pink ink and a small square bottle of same.
