Rite in the Rain Water-resistant paper

This item comes from follow-up marketing email after the Super Duper Powerpoint Festival. RantWoman has mixed feelings about turning too high a percentage of her rants and raves into product placements. RantWoman knows that many of her groupies are perfectly happy not having every single byte of the whole internet flood coming at them turn into an advertising moment. All that notwithstanding, please indulge RantWoman's passion for cool paper and ways to write in all kinds of weather.

Perhaps you are a birder or a geology buff. Perhaps you are like the guy on the site who collects ants from all over the world. Perhaps you have some other ecological fascination. Perhaps you are just a compulsive journaler who lives somewhere on the planet where things get wet unexpectedly without asking anyone's permission.

Rite in the Rain is a Tacoma-area company that produces ruggedized water-resistant paper, paper for printers, paper in spiral pads of various sizes paper in bound packages with a custom pen, paper in cordura covers, paper in all kinds of forms it would not even occur to RantWoman to want. This paper can come custom-printed for a variety of Emergency Response, firefighting and other purposes, but there are plenty of options for more pedestrian applications..

The paper works great with pencils but if you need a water resistant pen badly enough, there is a really cool item with a ring for a lanyard. Okay, so it runs $20 each, but RantWoman who is quite a cheapskate herself could justify it. If you want really a lot of something, there are options for custom orders too.

Or perhaps you are just a Braille user who sometimes needs paper stiffer and more water-resistant than what usually comes in spiral notebooks. RantWoman was very impressed with the stiffness of this paper when she got to put her hands on it and now she means to dig out the little bound notebook she got given for free. RantWoman is pretty sure she is going to really like this paper either for small-sized braille notetaking or for use with her beloved 20/20 fat pens which also are more water-resistant than average.

RantWoman does note that she kind of wishes the paper came in Reporters Notebook size. RantWoman uses Reporters' Notebooks for interpreter notetaking and occasionally works in really wet environments, although she herself has never done the famous Interpret aboard fishing vessels thing where many Russian itnerpreters cut their teeth. RantWoman thinks for now that is not a fatal flaw: RantWoman cannot imagine wanting enough waterproof Reporters' Notebooks to justify a custom order and does not have the fortitude to resell herself, but if anyone else were interested....
