svpii, thanks for the suggestion and for your time! On my laptop keyboard esc is top upper left. I rarely go up there. My hands stay down toward the bottom. I have had fewer problems since some folks on the Marriott board told me to hover my hands and not let them rest on the keyboard.
Just the same I will watch esc and I wish you a most happy New Year! (oops that exclamation point comes awfully close to esc, maybe that's what did it :-) )
