Fountain Pens

Someone suggested it to me for note taking during lectures because not having to apply as much pressure allows for longer periods of writing without fatigue. So I picked up a three pack of Pilot Varsity pens. Now I carry a Lamy Al-Star around with me everywhere and use it for most of my writing. I was just curious if anyone else around here uses one and, if so, what pen(s) are you fond of?

I like fountain pens, and I write a lot. But I don't use them much anymore because I have ruined to many clothes with accidents.

On a historical note, I remember my father used to have bottles of blue and blank ink. Back in those days, before ink cartridges, pens had a little lever on the side operated to suck ink into the pen.

As far as writing without fatigue--gel pens seem require less pressure than cheap ball points. I favor Pilots.
