   I write long-hand occassionally, when I'm away from the terminal.  I
find that what gets written longhand usually is, as you said, very
different from what I say on the terminal.  Sometimes it's sparser,
sometimes it seems much more rich.  Either way, it's usually the
leaping-off point for the style I'm trying to capture.  Longhand
doesn't always serve the purpose, but it is functionally different, for
me at least, from typing.
