Re: obscure arcane knowledge...archival CD's

I was just in J&R Music world in NYC and saw a Casio label printer for Cd's.
It didn't need a computer (although it would work with one) and let's you
type in your label. I don't know if it is archival but it would allow you to
avoid the sharpie and it appears much simpler than trying to print out
labels. Just a thought. Thom

check out www.inkjetart.com for the Mitsui DVD's
They are rewritable Gold DVD's. Would those withstand
the sharpie ink better?

OK kids. Here's a brain teaser:

We all know that acid in paper and chlorine in PVC will damage pictures.

How about the ink in a Sharpie (tm)? Anyone know how will the ink in a
permanent marker affect CD-R discs?
