    I'd be Ctrl, ILMV can be Alt and visualAd can be Delete. Together we'd solve lots of problems

    I think timeshifter would choose "#" based on recent MSN conversations.

    I would be a backtick. Mainly because I like the name of it. Also because it sounds like some kind of horrific blood-sucking parasite, which I think suits me pretty well.
    I don't live here any more.

    I present to you the (work in progress?) VBF Keyboard.

    Please note that now that your choices have been made, you cannot choose any other keyboard key. You will remain that keyboard key for the rest of your life.
