DesiPundit

Reading this post evoked childhood memories of my own Hero fountain pen: distinct nib, the pump-like thing one presses to fill up ink and tissues to wipe out residual ink (in the process, spilling some ink on fingers)

Back when I was in school, my father brought me two “Hero” pens. One brown and one green. Soon enough, the barrel of the brown pen was broken, and the nib of the green pen followed presently. I put made use of what was later to be called as ‘Genetic Algorithms’ and continued working. I don’t know what I did with the spare cap though. The cap was once shiny gold in colour, but through constant biting and chewing, it’s become quite dull now.
