My problem with those pens isn't the running out of ink, it's the nibs going too soft.

Viagra perhaps?

My problem is the same as Mark's. The nibs get to soft and you cant get the same detail as when they were new. A good idea is just to buy them in bulk (wholesale) That way you get them for less. But this really is a great post!
