But I hate getting to the bottom of the page and having to scroll *all* the way back up to move on. (yes, I do realize how incredibly lazy I am, thank you! )

> Wow. You're the kind of person for whom researchers should push ahead with that technology that detects what your eyes are looking at and activates the appropriate area of the computer screen. I saw a program about that way back in the eighties, and assumed it would be a widespread feature of computers long before now. It appears to have become vaporware, like flying cars ala the "Jetsons", but it sure sounds like something you could use. I don't know how you'd double-click, though -- maybe just blink twice rapidly?

I mean really, really lazy.
My kind of people.
Oh darn! Now I have to click on "Preview Message" again. My work is never done.
Who was that who referred to people who post on this forum as "Rinkworkers?" I object. I don't want anybody to think I am any kind of worker. Then again, maybe objecting is too much work. I'd delete that if it didn't take so much effort.
