I bet you thought I fell off the planet. I know I'm not the greatest contributor to Livejournal. Depression and life often gets in the way. Lately, I haven't been writing much online because my DragonDictate has started refusing to work in anything but Word. Before a couple system crashes, DragonDictate would work in my e-mail and Usenet program, in the instant messenger programs that I use. It even worked in Livejournal! Now all it does is beep at me unless its typing into Microsoft Word. This does cut my online output down considerably. Just FYI

Damn software malfunctions! :-(

That sounds like a serious pain! You probably already tried reinstalling it?

Oh yes, twice.

Is "write it in Word then cuttanpaste to LJ (or wherever)" a possibility, or do you need the Dragon thingy to do the cuttanpaste?

That's basically what I do, with an added step or two. It's just another complication which makes me less likely to want to do it (post, I mean). There's other weirdness going on with my computer. I've decided to get a replacement in the near future. I use my computer to do entirely too many things for me to go without a reliable one. I'll also be upgrading DragonDictate. I am using version 6. It's about time I moved up.
