I take needle nose pliers and pull the point out about an 1/8 in or so then
use my razor knife to repoint the wick. Works for awhile and the wick is
over an inch long so it still. hmmmm. well it still wicks!

They don't last very long when you forget and leave the cap off, do they?

There is a version of a marker that clicks like a retractable ink pen,
though, and they work pretty good. The problem is that the point is not
nearly as sharp.

Anyone ever try to sharpen a sharpie? It seems like there should be a
way,
somehow.
