yeah, it's the air pressure. if you plug the hole and the ambient pressure drops, it can force ink out through the tip.

I wonder what the long term cost is of my asking rather than trying to figure it out for myself? The future is clearly going to be a combination of the futures shown to us in Idiocracy and Wall-E

Isn't it about time someone has a go at making a decent film version of Dune? But who?
"Pushya and Pullya are a robotic set that that break away from the conventional norm of obedience. They are not the slaves we expect robots to be and are delightfully mischievous. Pushya is the radical sort who acts erratically, starring in those awkward moments of life; Pullya does the opposite by behaving like the perfect lad. Both don’t follow any of the commands that you dictate and do their free will. Hard to fathom Robos doin that, but like they say Yin and Yang, the good and bad co-exist in this world."

"There’s a whole lot of esoteric rhyme and reason why this exhibit exists but the main gist is a series of sounds naturally reverberating off the hollow tubes of bamboo and metal as you bump into them. You get lost in this world on dynamic sound and light. Perceptions change as I’m sure any would crashing into a bunch of hollow tubes, but the sensorial data stimulates different emotions and connections you share with other visitors in the exhibit. Think of it as a wondrous interactive labyrinth where nature meets technology. Visitors can even leave personal messages on the tubes - the proverbial “I was here!”"

"Park your butt on it or stow some books; you got to hand it to these wonderful designers for addressing many issues at one go. For example, if you have space crunch, then this impromptu bookshelf stool is handy. Notice how the deep U-s hold thick fat books comfortably! You like modular, multifunctional stuff; check the box! Using bending technique for molding the 8 layers of industrial gray felt (stuck with epoxy resin) and 2 layers of veneer, this piece could add a third dimension to it….use it as a table!"

Those pesky Swedes with their sexy ladies draw level. 3-3 and looking like Extra Time
- Toby Graham
Extra time, I don't need this. Last years semi final 12-13 lose on pens was probably the most excruciating experience of my life, especially after the effort I put in travelling to Holland (with all their sexy ladies) and them eventually knocking us out. Great experience for the young lads tho. 30 mins to put this to bed, come on boys
