Number 2 Pencil

A very impressive web page. Only one issue: In review of the number 2 pencil, comments are made concerning the carrying of a pencil. As if it is some obscure device that only draftsmen and construction workers use. Most likely every 1st through college level student carries one and every pencil pushing office geek does as well. This statement is then followed by a "HOT ROD gets much better reaction". Well, name one layman on planet earth that carries that gem laced piece of plastic? 99.99% of the world has not the faintest idea what a hot rod is. Yes, it may draw a better reaction for you, but is this the result of your patter and presentation? Restructuring of the review may be called for if you wish to make it credible and solid. Keep up the great work and I apologize if I offend you with the above criticism. - Eric Sevland

[Many take exception with our review of #2 pencil. But honestly, I was a student for many years and I've been a pencil pushing business type for more years than I care to mention, and I must say, I just can't remember carrying around a #2 pencil. Heck , a sharpened one would put a hole in my pocket. Oh wait , come to think there was a time when I carried one behind my ear....that was until my boss told me it made me look like a grocery clerk....just the same thanks for sharing your thoughts and BTW no offense is taken. -mm]
