The last I heard of this was an article done by the in-flight Southwest Airlines magazine, and he was still going strong. Should correspond to somewhere between 18 and 24 months ago. This is a huge turnaround, and unwanted.

The "10,000 hour" idea, to me, is a comforting notion that any human can accomplish notable feats given sufficient time. I'd like to see it investigated in more instances, because this is one data point telling us that genetic predisposition plays a finite role. Actually, it makes sense that a forceful and repetitious movement repeated 8-ish times per hour (~80,000 times total over 10,000 hours) could wreak havoc on a person's physical well-being. The asymmetric distribution of the bodily strain induced by preferential "handedness" is worth consideration. Many professional golf players have put their bodies through a similar trial, and though I have mocked their status as "athletes", it may be wise for me to reconsider.

I wanted to hate the guy, especially the first time I learnt (lol, that's actually a word) of it a few years ago, but now how can I do that?
