It's Aussie-speak, Chemeng. (not that I am one but).

S'right, Chemeng - I was there when the finer points of its usage were explained to us. We don't know if we're doing it right, as it was explained by a Zildian, but. Hi, CapK

You might even say you forwent reading it.

The inability of my finger to distinguish between "i" and "o" keys makes me look like a bithering idiot!

are there any statistics covering the most frequent typing errors? I realize that many get corrected without ever being read, but just wondering. I know that I mess up I and O more than anything else.
this may open up discussion of Dvorak keyboards and the like, but, hey, that could be fun.

Oh, Rhuby, you mistake me. Far from calling you an odoit, I had assumed you were using goven jocularly.

No - I forwent jocularity this time.

statistics covering the most frequent typing errors

And are there any spell checkers that take them into account? I most frequently reverse letters, particularly when they are in oppostie hands. Another is getting pgg regoister or, what I call fumble fingers, hitting two adjacent keys simultaneously.

I am much the same, but in my case it is alloyed with a firm belief that I can't get any thing wrong. This makes proof reading un-necessary.

As usual, OT, one word from you is worth a volume.
