So do you do this "advanced task swapping" for the thrill of it, as a
nervous energy outlet -- or because you absolutely need to do it? I can
understand that there would be high-pressured situations in a working
environment where simultaneous tasks would be a necessity -- but if not, I
could only see that it serves as a high-energy form or entertainment. I
suppose that I don't have as much need for the "entertainment" of my
computer now that I'm older than you. ;)
