Hello Tor,

What a pleasant surprise! Hope you and your family are well. I don't keep up with what's happening in Far East much. I left Japan in 1973 to go to college here in greater Washington, D.C. metro area. I am still near the capital and doing good in the condition I am in.
Did you finally find your jade fountain pen you were seeking?
This weekend I am taking delivery of 1980's Montblanc 149 with extra fine nib. This will be my last pen and only one in my collection. I just need to sell this No. 256 and Waterman Le Man 100 1883-983 Anniversary first year pen with extra fine nib. Then I am done because I finally found what I prefer.

Regards, Robert
