OT: You know you are getting "old" when... Message #1 Posted by bill platt on 3 Mar 2006, 11:37 a.m. You grab a blackwing 602 pencil to take a phone message, and then realize, with dread, that it is probably an irreplaceable antique now and after a search that yes, it is discontinued and is now a collector's item. I can't begin to think of where I've experienced this feeling before...;-) Regards, Bill
