Thanks - I've been reading acpp for about 10 years, and have known
Nathan since the days when he actually had time to do pen repair! Thanks
for the contract ink suggestion - have a couple of his colors, but not
any of those... yet. This also means that we may "know" each other
already - small world!

There *are* some really nice and helpful people there, but to be honest
- I learned how to killfile because of that group. I keep thinking that
someone will have posted about the LA show, but nothing yet.
