Doctor Who what are you doing

This kind of reminds me of a thing I talked about on a character design panel I did once, separating what you think you know from what you know you know.

Everyone should install Better Touch Tool because it gives you Windows 7-like window snapping and maximising behaviour AND lets you create custom touch gesture shortcuts.
