Comments on: Pentel Black Polymer 999α (999 alpha) pencil http://www.penciltalk.org/2008/07/pentel-black-polymer-999%ce%b1-999-alpha-pencil A discussion of the art and beauty of the pencil. Since 2005.

One thing is if enough pencil people will notice our petition (and participate), another is if other pencil users are as interested in this particular pencil as I am (and would like to sign the petition). There are many variables here. ;-) Kim. Well, I guess they just won’t resume production then. :D

If a couple are all you want, send me an address, and we'll hook you up!
