Repetitive actions like highlighting text, memory loss and constantly following people about, are all signs of dementia. Then again, having to spend 5 days a week working with you lot is enough to drive me mad!

He asked me if I was doing it deliberately as the blog is about this very topic, but I had to own up, I am guilty too!

Also perhaps you wouldn't be complaining about RSI if you stopped clicking, dragging, clicking... I on the other hand have little patience for my PC I just want to find the info and get on with the work, no time for selectitis, so when it freezes or generally doesn't do what i want I tend to shout at it or bang on it - guess what, it makes no difference!

The number of times guys in my team moan because I have this habit of selecting any text in a mail or doc when I'm reading it. Hats of Meat though I think requires some serious counselling. I wonder what old Siegman would have made of that :) Blimey, I thought it was just me.
