Extend The Life Of Your Favorite Writing Tool With A Pen Refill(Sep 18, 2011)
You may have heard of the concept of "planned obsolescence." While this has gone on steroids in recent years with the wholesale export of American industry to Red China, the fact is that the concept goes far back into the history of American manufacturing and at one time, there was actually a logical reason for it (and has some bearing on the idea of the ink pen refill). According to Kent Family Chronicles author John Jakes, the first serious American industry was shipbuilding, which got its start in the early 1700s. In those days however, there were two issues in play: first, the construction of a full-sized seagoing vessel from blueprint to launch could take between ten and twenty years. Secondly, maritime technology was advancing at a fast pace; faster, in fact than these ships could be built. In essence, an 18th-Century sailing ship was obsolete as soon as it slid into the water. Therefore, it made little economic sense to construct them to be durable. Unfortunately, this became a habit that found its way into virtually all industries, leading to our wasteful "throwaway" culture.A pen refill is an excellent way to reduce, reuse and recycle.There is a pen refill available for a wide variety of writing instruments in fact, you'll find that there is a pen refill for all of your favorite types of pen.
