>>470 suffered a tragic mitten accident that resulted in his mittens being melted to his hands, and he has had to try to type like that ever since. Coping has been difficult, and his online friends rarely understand him anymore. Writing is slightly less difficult, and so he has become pen pals with some of them. He still returns to his computer to try using his favorite sites like the Channel4 BBS, and stays optimistic, despite the lack of apparent progress.
