SURELY you're not going to hold your breath waiting for THAT to happen!

It's just a suggestion, Steve. No need to get all excited.

No excitement here, Jim, save for the new station stuff I'm assembling.

That would be akin to forcing a mime to sit on his hands! ! ! ! ! !

Can you meet the same challenge?

I only need one finger to tap on the key with!

And I'll follow Jim's lead.

Why not lead the way, Steve?

Why not?

Why not?

Dee and all the FISTS club members will come on here and tell you that
you don't tap on the key with one finger.

I can see a QST cover award winning layout featuring that
tippy-tapping dancing entertainer Bojangles Robeson! :-)

Actually I would have said you don't even need one. In an emergency, just
about any part of the anatomy could be used. This is independent of what
the normal operating practice might be.

Besides that one could easily build a key designed around the principle of
being tapped if desired.

This was first proposed in a book that I saw at a hamfest a while back
- it was titled "Handsfree Telegraphy - The Dick Bash Method"

It sure is!

I suspect that most of the folks that I have subjected to my
5-or-so-WPM code firmly believe that I learned from this book.....
