Ink actually soaks into the paper, making it impossible to cut it off the paper without cutting out the portion of paper it's soaked into.
Now, pencil lead would be a different story, but you'd still probably have a little bit of graphite powder in the remaining paper. You'd also need a vorpal blade*, and at the moment those are impossible.
*Vorpal: A vorpal blade's edges are pounded to be exactly one atom thick, so the edge is transparent. A vorpal blade can cut through *anything*, as its blade can simply pass through the atoms of what it's cutting, and separate them.
Eh. As said, with ballpoint you probably could, pencil lead likely, but otherwise, prolly not. Paint, however, unless it's watercolor...
Nm, you said one atom not molecule... [ 12-18-2003: Message edited by: Ace in the Spade ]
