- That depends on what time of day you ask me to join. Before 11a.m., I'm a
- charter member.:-) I think what happens often is that my left hand responds
- just slightly faster than my right one. So, sometimes I'll tell my hands to
- type "gripe", but will get "griep" instead, or something like that... Other
- times, my fingers will type the first letter of the next word as the last
- letter of the previous one. That one could be interesting....:-)

- Luck, and I hope Santa [or whoever] was good to you. I didn't get software
- for Christmas this year, but Santa [or more properly my mother] did bring
- a shortwave receiver. So far all I've managed to pull in are two Spanish
- language stations, at least one of which was playing salsa. I have no idea
- where they were broadcasting from.
