WooHoo, so according to this I'm off the hook on eye damage from moniters (and by extension TVs), as I'm farsighted. Of course It says nothing about farsighted-ness, only talking about people with normal and shortsighted eyesight. But that's justification (I think) for taking up the computer profession that I've been looking for of recent. Besides that means I can post more here on these forums more often.

short-sighted people - is that not really an form of ego, should it not be near-sighted people? Mmmmmmm, but then I lost sight...

I'm sure no one is really that surprised, though...

That's it, I'm preparing my class-action lawsuit against EN World. If this site wasn't so good, I'd spend a lot less time looking at a computer monitor. The lawsuit will name Morrus, Eric Noah, Eric's Grandma, all the administrators and moderators, Hasboro Inc., E. Gary Gygax and Al Gore (after all he invented the internet).

Holy crap, I'm blind!

Didn't they warn you not to keep doing that?

Heh.

As the only person in my family, who *hasn't* some problems with his eyes I may have good chances. Then again, I am also the only one to sit in front of my PC no less than 6-8 hours a day. Now where all that time goes is another mystery ... probably drained by ENWorld. That's another lawsuit right there ...
