One end permanent ink, the other wipe-off - is this just a silly idea, or are such pens available?

I've never seen one, no. I would prefer a permanent marker that shrieked aloud in proximity to a dry-erase board so that my fine co-workers would no longer make *that* mistake, and an dry-erase marker which shouted "NO" when about to be used for marking sample bottles. |

I have seen double-ended writing tools with a ballpoint pen in one end and an highlighter in the other, though. |

I use dual felt tips of the permanent kind (fine/ultra fine) daily, but haven't seen the kind you're proposing. |

This idea isn't too silly as there've been instances where I've needed both, but Peter's point is probably the reason why these pens don't exist. |

What about little whiteboard-erasers on the ends of dry-erase markers? Might be useful for small mistakes and would prevent people from erasing things with spittle-coated fingertips or little shreds of tissues. Stupid, or baked? Probably both. |

Get a half-inch-wide strip of fur-side adhesive Velcro and spiral it round the whole barrel of a whiteboard pen. It makes a very good full-swipe wiper always at hand. |
