Pse note that most ball point inks will eventually completely disappear, leaving only an indention where the ink used to be. Decay times vary with brand and storage condx. Many ink jet computer printer inks have a short lifespan... both applications have the spec of a quick dry... and if it drys quickly it likely will also disappear more quickly due to the chemical composition that creates the fast drying.
This is why most bankers and lawyers have you sign important documents with THEIR PEN, not yours. They use permanent, real ink. The longest lasting ink has some metal in it, but good results can be expected from a Flair or Sharpie permanent ink versions. Typewriter ribbon inks are also usually very long lasting because they have metal in them to avoid rusting the keys. But..... Nothing lasts forever, not even good ole paper and ink QSLs. 73, Charly Charles Harpole [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com ------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems, etc DX-NEWS http://njdxa.org/dx-news DX-CHAT: http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX NEWS items only, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives http://www.mail-archive.com/dx-news%40pro-usa.net/
