Re: Way OT: EM fingers!

["Tom Ritchford" <tom@swirly.com>]

I was stabbed in the left thumb by a nasty, drunken girlfriend over
four years ago and the sensation never returned to parts of it.  On
the wind instrument (my primary instrument), that thumb does the
octave key, but to my great pleasure, it turns out that muscle memory
alone works perfectly there.  And of course it doesn't interfere with
stringed instruments at all.  But it bugs me every time I try to play
the piano.

Hmm, acupuncture, you say?
