Thanks for the compliments, but it really was out of desperation. (Necessity is the mother . . .) I may have had something that pointed in my purse before 9-11 (I used to carry mace on my key-chain when I lived in the city). A 25-minute train ride without my books? Arg! Funny thing was, I fully expected the lead to break, and it did not! I just read your posts, Daffy and Desertgrandma, and am clipping a paper clip to my Oberon.
