My contribution to the editor combat arena

Gosh, I've really felt left out since I've been reading all these neat
arguments about text editors.  I couldn't think of anything to say!
Imagine my frustration.  But just last night something happened to
change all that:

I had a dream that I was buying sporting goods in a shopping mall.  I
walked into the store and found what I wanted on a shelf very near the
entrance (in fact, it was just behind one of those things that makes
noise if you try to steal something).  There was a cash register
nearby, but no sales attendant was present.  Oh no!  What would I do?
Then it hit me: I was dreaming with vi!  I could just type `n' and get
to the next cash register!  I kept doing this until I found a sales
person.

OK all you Emacs freaks:  can Emacs find salespeople with a single
keystroke?
