Pencils are made out of all sorts of reclaimed materials: paper, tires, fabric, plastic - you name it. And why not? But to try each type is a lot of pencils. This would be a sampler with 3 recycled pencils of each type, bound with a recycled paper ribbon touting their specialness.

Hmmm. Not unreasonable, and probably not even
impossible. |
|
| |
However, I find myself slightly underwhelmed by the idea of
packaging three recycled pencils together. |
|
| |
Perhaps it is because my soul is jaded. |
|
| |
And you hate Mother Earth. |

We could add a fourth pencil. |
|
| |
Adding a fourth pencil would tip the balance for me. |
|
| |
Whew! I thought you people would never settle this
argument. |
|
| |
That fourth pencil did it for me. And the special
ribbon. (I'm such a pushover.) Bun. |
|

You have all misread the idea. It says 3 of each type, not one of each of three types. 3 each of paper, tires, fabric, plastic and you name it (the last presumably some kind of unidentifiable toxic sludge) makes 15 pencils in the pack. |
|
| |
I would prefer one each of 3 (or 4) types. |
|
| |
Ah, but then it would not be a sampler, would it? |
|
| |
I think a feasibility study is needed before we can really
comment further on this scheme. |
|
| |
By 'sampler' I thought [bungston] meant 2" stubs of
each, not whole pencils. That would make it a
sampler, would it not? |
