    Glad to know that at least a few of us actually know what that is -
    much like CelNav it's really becoming a dying art these days.

    As one "old dog" to another, you really ought to try it sometime
    (personally, I'm doing a lot of stuff on a computer these days that was
    done manually before - audio/video editing, CAD, etc. - and of course
    CelNav), and really wouldn't want to go back to the "bad old days"
    before computers. If the "instant gratification" lure doesn't get you
    (and the ability to play "what if" in real time), the "Undo" function
    just might do it.  :-)
