I was reading a sales pitch that asked me if my right index finger were stronger than my left due to using the TV remote control.

Huh? I hold the remote in my right hand, and I use my right thumb to push the buttons. Who uses their index finger for a remote control? I'm not alone here, right?

I use all my fingers for my Tivo remote. I treat it more like a keyboard.

Pause - middle finger
FF - ring finger
Rewind - index finger
Clear - thumb
Play - middle finger
8 second skip - index
Guide - index
Switch tuners - thumb
