Hey, here's a tip. When you're refilling your inkwell from the big bottle, and you've taken the bottle over to your desk where awaits the inkwell, do not

- repeat, do not -

squirt the ink into your tea instead of into the inkwell.

My safrut teacher regaled us with the following tale:

He was mixing up a batch of ink, so his friend asked for some. He sent it over in a coca-cola bottle. The wife of the friend did not realize it was ink and drank it. An entire glass. How she did not realize that it was ink, I am unsure. However, he received a call from poison control to ascertain the ingredients in the ink.

Coca-cola tastes vile, but ink tastes worse!

Who is your teacher, and where are they based?
