I am too, but normally with things that aren't online, so my attentions are distracted.

I'm usually on three or more websites (almost always including this and the C/D forums) as well as often reading and/or eating.

You're very talented. I look forward to the day when we'll have good, inexpensive optical computers that run on voice so I can walk around and do things while online.

They have those, except for the inexpensive part.  But our school has them.


That reminds me.... (post in GMPTT) (so iffy doesn't call me a whore for posting it twice) (but he will anyway since I just said that)

I know they have them, but there was a reason I said inexpensive. What on earth could your school use them for?

Look in GMPTT.  They also have a conference room with like six 32"+ TVs that they talk to people all over the world with.  By the way, this is all part of the Brookfield Area Career Center, but it's part of our school district.

Do you mean that your school owns the center, or that it's state funded and just in your district? Because that's different all together.

Of course I copied and pasted. My time is far more valuable than that.

I can type faster than I can talk, so the current method works for me. Plus, I can walk around while pages load anyway.

Either you're an insanely fast typer, or you talk too slow. And even on dial-up, pages don't take long enough to load that I have time to walk to the kitchen and back or anything. I guess I could stand up and dance in a circle for a few seconds, but that would be largely pointless.

I'm not an extremely fast typer or slow speaker, but I assume that you have to speak slowly and clearly into computer voice-recognition software.

And you can't use the computer from another part of your house with voice-recognition anyway.

Our school owns it, the teachers and all are paid by our district and everything, it's all intwined, and about 20 feet from the actual school.

Your lack of a smilie suggests that you weren't kidding when you said that.
