Biros tend not to come with an eraser -- that's pencils you're thinking
about again.

It's fairly easy to shake a biro in an arc without a string. Hold it
right at the end (not the nib end), between your thumb and forefinger (if
Martians have fingers and thumbs) such that your fingers are perpendicular,
not parallel, to the length of the biro. Drip tightly, and vibrate your
thumb up and down slightly.

(PS: If you want to see how flickery a CRT screen is, hold the pen in
front of the screen while doing this.)
