Mick,

I would think it is obvious.  The double nib would be twice as effective 
as a single nib would be - for its primary purpose.  Now, if I could 
just remember what the primary purpose of the nib was.

I'm sure I could find out if I had time to look in the archives.  I seem 
to remember that nibs were discussed at least once before.
