I have gotten several pens from a few companies that are no longer listed or even around. When I walked into the auditorium for the SHM and saw they were giving away pens I laughed and thought Hmmmm??? Is this foreshadowing or what? I also thought, as long as the pens keep working the company will keep working. So far the pens I have left still work.(I got about a dozen thinking these might be very expensive pens!)I didn`t get a mug or cap however.
