THE SILENT MOUSE FROM AKIHABARA


I have worked in Japanese offices for decades now, even back when everything was edited by hand and then typed, and retyped... The continuously clacking cacophony of typewriter keys could be deafening on a busy day. Office noise has shrunk since then, and now we are reduced to mouseclicks, but even those... Help is at hand, however, and of course the welcome silence of space comes first from Sanko of Japan...

Did somebody drop a pin?

It was only a matter of time before someone decided those pesky little mouse clicks needed to be eliminated. Now we can focus on our pesky little human clicks...think they have something for that?

My cubicle mate passes...you know what...I will settle for mouse clicks, thank you.

Having just opened and click-prepared several documents for editing (50-60 clicks), I'd rather hear a pin drop occasionally.
