It is a fascinating feature of GE but I've had moderate chronic RSI from keyboard and mouse use for quite some time so that it takes me 2 or 3 times as long even to write a post or email than I used to so I doubt I'd use FS long enough to get proficient at it. It would flare it up too much. I use Advil, as effective as it is, as infrequently as possible. Ice dips work too, but they take up 2 hours at a time. So I play a balancing act with the computer.

I have a feeling if I abstained from using it for a few weeks, I could recover a good amount of normal use. Just can't imagine that though. I work part time for a tax office and also enjoy posting here and on other blogs, YT, etc.

I use Dragon for long stuff, but I don't care for the hassle of it for incidental writing like this.
