Interesting.  I have not had *this* problem but I have seen something
rather strange happen under Multifinder (which I used until discovering
that with 1Mb of RAM, you don't get too far) anyway, in 1,000 Miles (I
never tested to see if it happened outside) shift clicking alot (which you
have to do) gave me a little symbol to the right of the icon in the menu
bar.  first it looked like a '[' lying on its back.  ShiftClicking again
made it look like the same thing but colored in black.  Once more and a
little arrow pointed down into it.  At this point shift was locked and any
click was a shift click.  ShiftClicking again made the arrow go away, then
made it turn into '[' again and finally it went away.  Is this some random
feature that I should know about?
