[MRCA] Sharpie Pens & Losing Stuff

Hi all,

I'm a great fan of Sharpies, especially the extra fine ones for 
marking out. However they are the shortest lasting pen and the top is 
in my mouth
ready to put straight back on the marker. In class, at work, the 
instructors would leave the top off a whiteboard marker, whilst 
talking, then it would
be dried out the next time they tried to write. Annoyed the hell out 
of me. I was thinking of drilling a fine hole in the marker, then 
inject permanent
ink into it using a printer ink hypodermic needle, then tape the hole.

Now where did I leave those needles. I pull everything out looking 
for something, find something I couldn't find last week or something 
that I forgot I had.
That causes a project detour. The "round to it" became a bigger circle.

Anyway thanks Jack Antonio, I thought I was the only one.

the northern hemisphere folk.
