WYMHM: "In my final hour of Internet use, I responded immediately to every incoming e-mail."

I am still using my computer to type; I'm just not connected to the Web. And I do have a student, Pat, who is helping me with this column. I dump my Word document and drawings (which have been scanned) onto his thumb drive, and he sends it along to my editor, who faxes me back edited copy to discuss. "Isn't that cheating?" I'm asked. "Pat is my shabbos goy," I reply.
