I made a bold statement on Saturday

Well, it was bold for me anyway. I stated (and Adam should have the audio up soon for the exact quote) that computer users who have not learned how to Copy and Paste should unplug their computers are put them on the curb for someone else to pickup. 

The statement seems a little extreme and at the time, it was meant for a giggle in the context of the show. However, the more I thought about it, the more it made sense. The ability to Cut, Copy, and Paste is an extremely useful and easy to learn tool. Tutorials can be found everywhere regarding the subject (including right here on this site). I think it is an absolutely essential tool because it can be used in almost every aspect of computing except Solitaire. 

You will use it with email, word processing, financial programs, Internet browsing, pictures, backup, video editing, genealogy, spreadsheets, card creation, calendars, chat, 3D chat, mapping programs, and much more. Without Copy and Paste in your tool belt, you are using you are making the computer even harder to use than it already is.
