MessageOkay, if the problem is oil on the fingers, and if alcohol is used to 
clean switches, could we not take the alcohol aurally and eliminate the oil at 
the source?

  The designer of these devices, Steve Gomas, refers to this syndrome as, 
"pizza finger".
  It is a natural result of oils on the fingers, and if it gets bad enough, 
you'll  be sending you bookport in for some kind of repair.

  I find that pressing on one side or another works best all the time.  Also, 
have you tried wiping them off with one of those alcohol swabs you can buy for 
computer equipment?  I use it on my BrailleNote display and pins, too.
