Out of curiosity does anyone know who's bright idea it was to make C and V
(along with Ctrl) the Copy and Paste keys? Okay, the C I understand, but
why V? P was obviously taken by 'Print' but V doesn't make any sense. For
about the fourth time today (and uncounted times in the past) I have
fat-fingered the Ctrl-C when I meant to paste.

Maybe because they are right next to each other?

Just a guess.
