We've now got 15,000 book uploads in the MR library. (Actually 15005, as of now.)
That's cause for a modest celebration.

What is this "modest" you speak of? There must be FIREWORKS, AND DANCING GIRLS, AND DANCING BOYS, AND ELEPHANTS, AND LITTLE DOGS IN LITTLE UNIFORMS DOING LITTLE TRICKS, AND TRAPEZE ARTISTS, AND ROCK BANDS, AND POETRY SLAMS, AND MEXICAN WAVES, AND JELLY-WRESTLING, AND LASER-SHOWS, AND FOG MACHINES, AND RELEASED DOVES, AND RED CARPET, AND MOVIE STARS, AND CHAMPAGNE, AND MAGICIANS, AND PLATE-TWIRLERS, AND ELECTRIC BOOGALOO, AND AIR-FORCE AEROBATICS, AND SEQUINNED PARADES, AND ROYAL WAVES, AND FLASHMOBS, AND THUNDERCLAPS, AND METEOR SHOWERS, AND SUNRISES, AND SUNSETS, AND A RAIN OF DOUGHNUTS, AND SWIMMING POOLS FILLED WITH CHOCOLATE, AND CHOREOGRAPHED PANDAS DOING THE 'THRILLER' ZOMBIE DANCE, AND CHORUS LINES, AND maybe a nice cup o' tea and some scones with jam and cream, Devonshiring it, old-school!

Cheers,
Marc

anything harder than a 4H and you're in danger of puncturing (the paper!)

Those pencils are for drawing. For example, I use the 9H to make out the outlines when I sketch. As I add layers of drawing over it, it just disappears.

@VR: Do you use the 9H in your drawings?

No, I don't even own one. The hardest I have is 4H and I use it for light, erasable outlines. Actually, it's not the best choice for making erasable outlines because it's awfully easy to press too hard and then you end up with an indentation in your paper where you intended to make an erasable mark. So I now usually use something softer and my 3H and 4H pencils are almost unused. I can only imagine a 9H and am picturing something like a stainless steel stylus!

Yeah, but more like a piece of stone. The use for a 9H ideally is that you don't erase it at all, you just build over it and what remains is so faint as to be invisible.

BTW I never erase. But I do smudge a lot.

would imagine the use of a 9H would give useful practice before trying a silver point.....
