Robin -

The parenthetical question - "Does anyone not use a mouse?" - was actually a serious query, because I am aware of at least a few of our regulars who use one or another kind of "accessibility" devices. Even for the few that I'm pretty sure are using aids, I'm not sure just which devices and/or altered modes of operation are being used. A public survey would likely be undesirably invasive, so I'm certainly not advocating anything of that sort; but "compatibility" with altered modes of operation should definitely be kept in mind when proposing or installing anything very radical.

Just as an example of good ideas gone dormant, whatever happened with the Mystery HomePermanentThread. It got out in the rain and went all frizzy?

Well, it sounded like a good idea at the time... Too bad nobody new where to stop in to hear it's wonderful stories.
