So for the past few days my mighty mouse has just been acting up.  Sometimes I would lose the ability to scroll down.  I thought maybe Colloquy might just be acting up as it has issues a lot.  This morning was the last straw as it just would NOT scroll down.

So like any employee of a company with good irc channel, I asked my fellow geeks.

[09:16am] derek: has anyone seen a mighty mouse freak out and allow you to scroll up, but not scroll down?
[09:16am] ruinous: yep
[09:16am] ruinous: well known problem
[09:16am] derek: is there a hack or a fix
[09:16am] ruinous: to fix, turn upside down and rub vigorously
[09:16am] ruinous: (i'm serious)
[09:16am] derek: at least this mouse has no balls or that would be wrong
[09:17am] ruinous: Just Rub the Nub!
[09:18am] derek: yes that fixed it
[09:18am] derek: thank you sir
