== Description ==

Brad and Myke have returned to their respective homes after a great trip to Chicago. They recap the [[Field Notes]] event, talk about Brad’s trip journaling practices, and tease the upcoming [[Pen Addict Retro 51]]. There is also a ton of new product discussion, including possible [[Pelikan]] price changes. <ref>Description taken from the official Pen Addict podcast page https://www.relay.fm/penaddict/280</ref>

====Q: What dry erase markers do you recommend on glass in cold environments that are easy to read from far away?====
'''Answer:''' Chalk markers would work well. They have bright colours. 

====James wants to thank The Pen Addict <ref>[https://medium.com/thank-you-project/thank-you-relay-fm-af707c3f0c4e Thank you, Relay FM – Thank You Project – Medium] </ref>====

====Q: Why do some pens stop writing after a couple refills? I've cleaned them between fills. Lamy Safari, Pilot Metro, MnemosyneSingularity <ref>[https://twitter.com/Lirleni/status/922538938572603397 Vik-Thor Rose on Twitter]</ref>====
'''Answer:''' Sometimes nib and feed aren't cleaned enough. They can get clogged up between tines. 

==== Q: Reaction to a handwritten resume? What part of the job search is best suited to fountain pens. Thank You notes at a minimum? <ref>[https://twitter.com/murderofcrows/status/921126004432801797 [[User:Dougbeal]] on Twitter]</ref>====

'''Answer:''' There's almost no way to do a handwritten resume right, it might either look too fancy or not right.  
A handwritten Thank You note would work. As would a general cover letter.
