An artful adult student meets the challenge.

Normally when his mega-sized third finger depresses a G, wedged between framing black notes, he’s at HUGE risk to strike TWO notes instead of ONE. In this testy keyboard terrain, an unwanted Gb joins the pity party, channeling a dissonant minor second that poses a threat to all surrounding notes. (especially if they belong to a five-finger Eb MAJOR position)

But MIKE has it all figured out. He can maneuver around G, by pulling his hand out of danger, making the bumpy ride over the keys virtually non-existent. With an artful rotation in full swing, he’s armed to confront and eradicate any traps in the making.

If you don’t believe me, here’s the Big Guy in action!

He's pretty good! I always had trouble with the PC two button mouse. When trying to use it to click on something, I would push both buttons at once. The best way I've found to solve the problem was use a Mac with a single button mouse actuation.
