Roger,
I haven't seen one of those pencil eraser pointing devices in years, yet
I did picture one while composing my previous post to you on this issue.
That will teach me that I should spill everything that comes to mind and not
be so quick to dismiss the more esoteric notions my memory offers up to my
fingers.
Regardless, I suppose you can now clean off and put away the quill until
it is needed again. Welcome back to the keyboard, my friend. :O)
Peace,
Gman
