From: Kirk Kelley <KIRK.TYM@OFFICE-2> I'm left handed. That may mean I have a "digital" left hand (right brain) and an "analog" right hand (left brain). Reversed from right handers. Long before I ever thought about such things, I played guitar and moused "right handed". The digital type fret fingering is done with my left hand and the analog type volume and expression strumming is done with my right hand. I use the mouse with my analog right hand. That means my one-handed chord board is operated with my digital left hand, and I found the chord board relatively easy to learn. I am lost without the chord board. It makes all the difference in the world in using a mouse. Mousing is definitel analog. I have often wondered why right-handers chord with their analog hand and especially why they mouse with their digital hand. It may explain why some people dont take instantly to mice. It explains more why many people do not use the chord board. -- from the digital hand of Kirk Kelley p.s. The results of trying to draw freehand with a mouse are not in.
