6.1

     I am still making adjustments to the placement of the Report-It (closer, farther, straighter, more angled, narrower, wider; the only thing I don’t have to adjust anymore is the height), which means I’m still making adjustments to the position of the machine, and writing feels like an epic struggle.  I’m determined to get it to work.  Last night I actually had some spare time to do some dictionary maintenance.  I went through my dictionary and deleted all of the entries for words that end in R, N, or L that I added an -ed to.  There were 144, 136, and 300, respectively.
