Addicted to No Nonsense Pens

Am I the only one who's still addicted to Sheaffer No Nonsense Pens?  I've been using them since the mid-70's and I just can't stop.  Maybe it's the bright colors, or maybe the simple classic design.  I must have at least a dozen of them, mostly vintage bought on ebay.  Translucent, opaque, tag-a-long.  And I've worn out countless others.  I've tried other "fat" pens,  but they just aren't the same.  (Sigh.)  Like a junkie, every few months I make a special trek to my local blueprint shop to purchase a slew of fine point refills.  (Photo courtesy of fountain pen network.)
