Lilian Malt, a British woman, did work in this area, she came up with
the "Maltron" keyboard.  It was ergonomically designed to the hilt,
carefully sculpted to fit each hand, with many keys for each thumb.  It
looked like someone had taken an old MIT or Stanford MicroSwitch
keyboard and put it in the oven until it was totally deformed.  I think
the two halves could be used independently so that they could be mounted
on the arms of a chair or something.

I hoped that this keyboard would make it, but it seems we are just
too ingrained with qwerty to break loose.  If anyone knows about
such a keyboard for PC or MAC use I'd like to know about it.
