What does the "Co-" stand for, then? Is it just onomatopoetic to mimic how one says "crazy"? For non-native speakers this might not be as obvious. 😉

 

But thank you!

 

The Co-razy-views are ink reviews by two persons or more. I suppose the prefix "co-" stands for "co-operation".

Then there's coed (not CO-ED, meaning Cambridge English Dictionary). The prefix "co" in English usually implicates and/or augments a general usage involving -- where possible -- "both".

Pregenitor: in COncert with (together); COmpany 

Etymology: 

What does the Greek word CO mean?
STUDY. Com- / Co- a prefix meaning together or with. coexist.
 
Latin: kum; ko
co-, prefix. co- comes from Latin, where it has the meaning joint, jointly, together.
 
But anyway, that's for the Anglish -- here it's whatever its originator means for it to be!

The second pinned post on the Co-Razy-Views forum has the answer:

Of course I know what "co-" usually stands for, but I must have missed the explanation with the detail of "collaboration" on these reviews. 🙈

Since the Review forum has strict rules to prohibit additional reviews from overtaking the original reviewers thoughts, CRVs were designed to encourage letters and ink musings among FPNers.  So, CRVs are  multi-person, multipart mini reviews. More of a comparison than an inky thought, but not necessarily the tests and formality of the Ink Comparison section.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
