Technically, ^K marks *highlighted* records.  If you simply click
on a message, you're only highlighting 1 record.

I'm so used to doing ^A to select all emails, that I'm surprised 
to notice in v2.4 that there isn't an Edit->"Select All" emails.

Does typing ^A instead of ctrl-a mark me as a greybeard?

Casey asked Johnson if doctors tell a woman that the abortion
procedure they might use includes "sucking the brain out of the
skull."
"I don't think we would use those terms," Johnson said. "I think
we would probably use a term like 'decompression of the skull' or
'reducing the contents of the skull.'"
The judge responded, "Make it nice and palatable so that they
wouldn't understand what it's all about?"
Johnson, though, said doctors merely want to be sensitive.
