Big congrats, MG! But I think you'll find that you stay addicted to "addict" for waayyyy too long. It seemed like it took me forever to get to "old hand". But, then, I wasn't sure whether I disliked the addict in "addict" or the old in "old hand" more!
And, bein' a guitarist, I ain't sure I'm lookin' forward to Carpal Tunnel either! Think I'll just bask in my neutral Pooh-Bah-hood for as long as I can!
