too UK specific):

</tip>

also, personally i recommend the vertical mouse from
animax (http://www.animax.no/)

and lastly, someone wrote 'roll your head'.  DO NOT
ROLL your head.  SLOWLY tilt it sideways, turn it
sideways, bring it forward, chin to chest, but do not
tilt it backwards, it's an unnatural position.  in
general, try to keep your head over your body (sit up
straight! sorry, your mum was right.)
