Sharpies (the marker) ain't cutting it -- or marking it....
To get good contrast, a white pencil (or yellow, or pale blue)
sometimes works better than the graphite kind. Grease pencils and lumber crayons (or just Crayolas) have a place, too. 'Sharpie' and felt-tip markers can be found in dark colors, but it's useful to have a white or silver paint marker as well (seek in any art-supplies store). |

When you need it you really need it. Karl |
