<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">In my professional life, I copy a lot of text out of online content management systems and edit in it Pages before slapping it back in the CMS. Amazing how many errors jump out at you when you change fonts. Anyway, the cmd-C gets a real workout. Also, I frequently write about my cat, Chakaal. I just called Apple tech support. Obviously, this is not something they can fix over the phone, so this weekend, after we go see ME at Mid-Ohio Con, I get to go flummox the folks at the Genius Bar at Easton, right around the corner from the good Mongolian place. The phone guy had never heard of anyone physically wearing through a key before. Wearing out a keyboard, yes, but not boring a hole through a key cap.<div><br></div><div>Janet<br><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On Sep 30, 2009, at 5:03 PM, Larry Steller wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">I would have thought the P (for Penguin) key would have gone first!<br><br>-Larry "mrgrooism" Steller, Master Mendicant <br><br>"<strong><em>I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.</em></strong>" Edgar Allan Poe <br><br>Favorite Links: <br>YANKEE STADIUM TOURS: <a href="http://newyork.yankees.mlb.com/nyy/ballpark/stadium_tours.jsp">http://newyork.yankees.mlb.com/nyy/ballpark/stadium_tours.jsp</a> <br>FORGOTTEN NEW YORK: <a href="http://www.forgotten-ny.com">http://www.forgotten-ny.com</a> <br>LIBRARYTHING: <a href="http://www.librarything.com">http://www.librarything.com</a> <br>NEWS FROM ME: <a href="http://www.newsfromme.com">http://www.newsfromme.com</a> <br>POVONLINE: <a href="http://www.povonline.com">http://www.povonline.com</a> <br>THE FAB FAUX: <a href="http://www.thefabfaux.com/index.html">http://www.thefabfaux.com/index.html</a> <br>PENGUIN PERSPECTIVES: <a href="http://janetharriett.blogspot.com">http://janetharriett.blogspot.com</a> <br>DEFECTIVE YETI: <a href="http://www.defectiveyeti.com">http://www.defectiveyeti.com</a><br><br>--- On <b>Wed, 9/30/09, <a href="mailto:elie@harriett.us">elie@harriett.us</a> <i><<a href="mailto:elie@harriett.us">elie@harriett.us</a>></i></b> wrote:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><br>From: <a href="mailto:elie@harriett.us">elie@harriett.us</a> <<a href="mailto:elie@harriett.us">elie@harriett.us</a>><br>Subject: [Groop] Groopie & the Collateral Damage<br>To: <a href="mailto:Groop@groo.com">Groop@groo.com</a><br>Date: Wednesday, September 30, 2009, 12:25 AM<br><br><div id="yiv844321167"><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:#000000;font-size:10pt;"><div>My wife and fellow Groo fan, the Lovely and Talented Janet, has kept up her string of weird accidents.
