Hi.  I think the mouse on THELONIOUS.MIT.EDU (a SunBlade 100) is getting
flakey.

I have already taken out the ball and cleaned it, and blown air into the
ball cavity.

I think the left/right sensor-switch is getting hosed.  Up/down works
fine and clean, but left/right is getting harder to do, especially on
fine-grain movement.

May I please have a new mouse?

thank you,
