Hi, it's been a while since I've been onsite. Last time was after radiation/chemotherapy treatment for base of tongue cancer 2 years ago. Since then I've had two recurrences and two surgeries. Most recently, a fairly extensive glossectomy two months ago. Now I'm trying to swallow & back on the peg for the third time, perhaps for good. (I'll update my signature shortly.)

Anyway, here's my question: what's the deal with the mic-key button? No one has ever mentioned it to me. I happened to see a reference in the responses to Ebert's blog and searched it out. It seems much less obtrusive than a peg. In fact I'd been wondering about inventing something like it before I found it.

Is anyone on this site using one? Any problems with it? Recommend it? Please, tell me more!!

Thanks all!

David
