Out of control

While there was a Hindi movie by that name which pretty much succeeded in its stated objective, at least as far as audience temper goes, this title is more a description of the post, and my state of mind...remember this post, where i realised the uselessness of certain keys.. well, this post can be seen as a corollary... and yes,it aint supposed to be a serious post :)
you are sitting in a meeting that has been going on for quite sometime, one which is so important that you cant step out of it for some time, and some freak has made sure that the air conditioning settings match the natural settings of siberia, and you get a call, from nature... how useful would it be to use 'Ctrl P'..
how about the meteorology guys get to know of a seismic occurence that would result in a tsunami which could wipe out entire populations, and all they would have to prevent it is to use 'Ctrl C'...
and while we are on this horribly imaginative ride, theres something i have always wanted in life- an undo function, and i, for one would be extremely happy in my professional life,if i could have an option that said 'Save Ass'...
until next time, i'm scared, whos gonna Ctrl U?? ;)

hahah, oh yes.. We all need an undo function quite so often. It would be so nice.

if theres an undo i hope its a proper one (not like notepad - ie with a history level of only 1) and also has a redo ... i undo by mistake too often :)
