I'm getting better after years of practice, but then there's that thing where you're trying to select some text and your finger isn't exactly dead-still on the mouse, it rocks a fraction of a nano-inch while you're dragging, so the page or field that contains the text goes

up     down     up    down
   and      and   and

and you can't quite grab the text until you resettle your finger dead-center and hold your breath so nothing moves. I hate that.

I must say that I hope the new script editor has smooth scrolling. My old tired 
eye loses track when things jump-scroll. I find it too cumbersome to use an 
external editor. Maybe I could learn to ...

You've never had that thing happen where you brush up against the mouse and 
your very long script goes madly scrolling at top speed off into the ether in a 
direction you can't pinpoint because it happens so fast, careening completely 
out of control and losing your place, causing you to forget where you were in 
the code and you can't find it again for a minute, which makes you so furious 
that you say things you aren't supposed to say, and then your spouse feels 
guilty because they think they did something you don't like but they don't know 
what it was?

Nope. Not I. I find the Apple wireless mouse to be a fantastic device.
