Just heard of another lawsuit filed against Leckrone; by a one-time friend.

I'm happily engaged in redesigning our core computer. Hope to gain speed and simplicity.

My hands feel good today, so I thought to explain: The vertebrae I mentioned earlier are not responsible for the numbness in my fingers. It's plain old Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. I guess 50 years of typing caught up with me. That, or driving or even reading heavy books.

So I wear wrist braces, apply voodoo cream and watch out for wrist flexure. I also have a device that stretches the carpal ligament. Seems to be helping, slowly. I want to avoid surgery, which relieves symptoms, but doesn't address the problem of tendonitis.

Spring has come. I'm wearing shorts and tee instead of jeans and wool. The low Mt Rose trails are clear of snow, so hiking season has begun.
