I'm left-handed, write somewhat crabbily at the best of times, and was suffering somewhat from mild RSI at the time. Half an hour isn't very long; I can type a lot faster than I can hand-write, so to make even a token stab at the task I needed a keyboard.

That being said, it was a interesting enough read.
