          It isn't. It's just that peoples spelling skills make it look that way.

            I can see my fingers; I just can't see what keys they're on. :sigh:

              I doubt if you would have made it out of the house without your glasses let alone all the way to work.

                  Can't work as I have forgotten my glasses home and can't be asked to go back home to pick it up as I will be going home during lunch anyway. So need to act as if am working for next two hours. :-D My eye sight isn't that bad as I can type this post, so hopefully I will be able to get some work done. ;)

                          Bugger ... I feel for you. I have spare specs secreted at home, at work and in the car. That way when I am a dufuss, I have a recovery plan. I also bought some mini specs at a servo and I carry these in my laptop bag. They look stupid on me, but have saved me on a few occasions. They are stored in a tube with a lid and it looks like a large lipstick container. This protects them whilst they are in the bag with all the other objects, connectors and stuff. People will often ask me what it is and I usually tell them that it is Mick Jagger's Lipstick. So I pretty well have covered the specs issue. Now if I could do this sort of thing with the mobile phone, I would be even happier.

                            Hello, Speaking of specs, i remember one of my seniors used to wear specs. The left temple of his specs broke(The left stick of his specs hooked above his ears to give support). The specs were about to fall. So he kept on holding them from the left side. From the side view it looked as if he was wearing a binocular.
