All is now right with the world. Down is, once again, down.
Thank you, Tom.
Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Am I crazy?
Please consult a qualified medical professional.
Perhaps we need a Buffistapsychology thread.
Or maybe Bitches and Natter suffice.

Make sure to uncheck the boxes that say "IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH" and "FREEDOM IS SLAVERY" in the preference pane, too.

Some tech writers believe you should go with the new prefs for about a week and if you still hate it, then change the pref pane.

It took me about a day to get used to the new scrolling direction. It makes sense in my brain now.

I'm holding out on installing Lion for about a month, so I don't yet know.

I was wondering about that. It's weird that my brain was going back and forth with no problems between the two styles. Human brains are pretty amazing, actually.
Well, I switched mine under one ID on my computer but not the other one. And then was totally confused for a few minutes until I realized I needed to switch the second one also.
eta: I think it's sort of a testament to how integrated we are with our computers (like cars) and we just navigate without really thinking about how to do it.
