Is that an actual song? I like it. What is the name of it? I'm sure
most people agree with the sentiment, too.
But what little at a time is being taught, should be taught correctly.
If the consensus is that using the mouse is the right way, fine; but I
disagree with the idea of letting bad habits form and overcoming them
later.
