The long term consequences make me think of footballers who play through with an injury, and make things worse, sometimes never recovering. I know if I wear out one hand to the point of pain doing things like sawing, filing, sanding, scrubbing, etc., and start switching hands, I end up with two very painful hands. And it's only a few switches before you end up swapping hands every 30 seconds or so. Computer input devices (mice, keyboards, trackpads, etc.), seem to be some of the most badly designed and awful tools to have to use. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
