Thanks to all that took the time to reply to my annoying keyboard problem.
You  might find it rather humerous as to how it was fixed.  A friend came
over and took a look at it.  He was totally un-mechanical, but had a habit
of typing with the fury of a mad olympic decathalon player (remember that?).
Anyway, his harsh typing caused it to start working again.  So remember:
if its broke, bang it!!!  Seriously, don't let children under 13 do it, it
may become a habit :)  Anyway, after I fixed that problem I decided to clean
my entire keyboard by removing the keys.  There was quite a bit of dust
and cat hair.  Yet another problem developed then.  I spent hours trying to
put the space bar back on.  That little bar and the spring gave me a helluva
lot of trouble.  Some electrical engineer fixed it for me, but it makes a
bit of noise.  Oh well...be careful out there, your keyboard could fight
back :)
