"Journalist Laszlo Biro was irritated with his fountain pen.

It often ran out of ink. Refilling the cartridges took too much time.

And the whole process was messy. The slow-drying ink would smudge, and the sharp tip of his pen sometimes ripped into paper...."

The above clip is from the article titled "He Invented the Ballpoint Pen" written by journalist Mr. Brian Deagon over at Investor's Business Daily (Investors.com)

I was contacted by Mr. Deagon, last week and we conversed about Laszlo's invention, as he mentions in the article.

Anyways, I found it to be a very good read, go ahead... enjoy►

I wanted to take a second to say Thank You to Mr. Brian Deagon and Investor's Business Daily for kindly mentioning me and RICHARDink.com in the article.  -- Thanks Brian!
