It apparently tracks your finger movements. Hooks up to PDAs, or any system with a USB or serial port.

Give that little sweet potato a big hug and kiss for me. He's just so dang CUTE!
I went to our Parish Lenten Mission on Tuesday night and a friend with her little 6 month old son was sitting behind me. He was just a chattin away and I couldn't stand it! I turned around and said "hand him over"! He and I had a great time. He kept trying to sing with us, and jumped up and down while standing on my lap. I held him about half the time, but then he finally tossed away the two toys he'd had, and started getting restless for his Mama. Sheila took him back and ended up having to go out with him cause he got so 'talkative'. He reminded me of "Sweet Baby" cause he's crawling around and pulling himself up to a sitting postition like your little one was doing at Entmoot.
I told Sheila I felt like a grandmother cause I can love on babies now, then give em back to their Mamas! ;o)
We thought about getting one of those for Joseph for school to go along with his Personal PC, but he decided on a fold up keyboard. It is really cool. He's gonna use it for taking notes when he starts high school in the fall.
>Dark elevators are spooky.
I saw enough dark, spooky elevators in one hospital I did Y2K work at. The hospital had expanded in stages, and wings were added at odd angles, and eventually joined to form a sort-of hollow square. Most elevators were small, and tucked away in odd alcoves off the hallways. The basement was dark and gloomy, and there were other elevators that that had been abandoned, with the openings bricked-up and covered over on the upper floors.
I've been in some older downtown buildings that were like that. Gives me a creepy feeling, like you're exposed from every direction to something lurking in the dark and behind the walls.
I have elevators and escalators in dreams, too. But they're usually super-deluxe models, or totally weird, like split-level elevator cars that also run horizontally, and along the outside surface of the building.
Haven't had elevators or escalators, but I have a recurring dream about climbing up a very tight winding staircase, and another similar one about discovering a hidden attic in the house which is difficult to reach because the entrance is very narrow. From comparing this type of dream with my sleeping position, I've concluded that for me at least this kind of dream is partly (though not entirely) a biological metaphor for my sleeping posture and my sense of stillness/motion generated by my tossing and turning. For instance, last week I had a dream I couldn't move to the right, and I woke up and found I was sleeping on my right side with my arm under me so that my arm was falling asleep :) I think maybe my staircase dreams are generated by something similar, like maybe the way my body is relaxed while sleeping makes me feel like I'm drifting "up", if that makes sense.
Sometimes my weirdest dreams end too soon for me to make sense of. The other night, I was in some sort of jeep-like vehicle with other guys, driving down a long lane of trees in some sort of semi-arid country. [SNIP] If the situation had turned dicey, I'm sure my subconscious would have made sure I was heavily armed. Even in my worst nightmares, I manage to come up with enough firepower to at least break even.
Interesting. My subconscious usually doesn't provide firearms (that'd be nice, LOL!), but I'll typically go into Kung Fu berserker mode against whatever bad guys happen to show up. It usually works except I notice sometimes if my arm has fallen asleep like I mention above my blows won't be as effective as otherwise, or similarly if I'm turned a certain way my feet will feel heavy so that I can't move as efficiently in the dream. Also I typically find that if it's a human bad guy I will fight them, but if it's some monster like a big shark instead of fighting them my subconscious will help me escape by swimming, floating, flying, etc. Weird how that works, huh?
I'm trying to picture French marines taking a beach :)
