No Doug I ment deaft. From one online dictionary:
1. deaft
1. Undeniably Good hand eye coordination.
2. Dexterity; proficiency with the use of ones hands / eyes.
2. Quick / skillful; adroit.
3. Skillfull in video-game situations, and or concerning real life situations that recuire quick thinking / coordination achieved that otherwise was not humanly plausible.
4. Swift; Smooth-like in performance.
5. And or in the state of having incredable accuracy.
6. #team-deaft on the Gamesurge Network on IRC
The hacker was so deaft it was difficult to make out whether he was hacking.
I was thinking about number 4.

I couldn't get
Merriam-Webster to recognize "deaft". Evidently the proper spelling is "deft".

dictionary.com doesn't recognize "deaft" either. Bruce must have access to one of those new cutting-edge dictionaries...

Well I checked again and guess what maybe it pays t look at the type of dictionary your using. to look up the spelling of a word as I did before using it.
http://www.urbandictionary.com/ which is the first google hit dictionary is a slang dictionary.
Of course I could try to BS you all into thinking I meant to use that dictionary but my last deaft attempt at humor was foiled.
1. foiled
a. your evil plan has been ruined.
b. a loosely organized plan has been terminated by the fact that it was only loosely organized.
"sh_t! She found out? My plan is foiled!"
Either A or B works well here.

Does adroit mean you knew there was a "view posts since last visit option" ?
