Power unit on 'old' computer broke, ordered replacement and borrowed a loaner from friend. The loaner's space bar didn't work!

[pinboy3niner]

13. Silly.me! I.thought.it.was.obvious.that.I.knew.that.

[elleng]

14. SILLY!

Not reading your posts in Shatner's voice just won't be the same.

[Raine1967]

18. I. must. do. this.

[Raine1967]

Nicely done!

[Phentex]

20. Whew! Your fake troll mask is OFF!

Some were quick to get angry with those little dots, weren't they?

[pinboy3niner]

22. Now I feel badly for suspecting she was a dot puppet

[elleng]

27. SOME have less patience than others!

[littlemissmartypants]

[MineralMan]

[rhett o rick]

34. I can't believe I am rec'ing a post about a "space bar". I need a life.

[littlemissmartypants]

36. Best post all week. nt

[rhett o rick]

38. Can't argue with that.

[rug]

37. I enjoyed reading the results of the juries you served on.

The.anonymity.of.jurors.is.a.precious.value.

[pinboy3niner]

42. LOL!

[littlemissmartypants]

43. Kicking. Thank you. nt

[freshwest]

44. When my space bar went out about a month ago I didn't think of using '.'s. It was maddening.

[elleng]

45. It took a while for me to come up with that 'solution,' freshwest.

[freshwest]

47. I was cutting and pasting spaces, LOL. While I waited for TWO keyboards to arrive.

I doubted my sanity at the effort I was putting in to make replies when asked questions, and what was worse, the space bar would work on and off within a sentence. Of course, it also affected the book chapters I work on in between posts. Which, thank god, have no political content whatsoever.

[Silent3]

46. So, just broken a different way now?

Your space bar should space, not return. That's the job of the Enter key.

[elleng]

48. Space bar spaces,

Enter key
returns.
