If you only have one or two keys to ease, you can do the following: press
down the sticking key and its neighbor, stick a metal blade in between the
two keys, put sideways preasure on the offender, then repeat on the other
side of the key.  This can be done on either rail.  Be careful if a sharp is
involved that you don't pop off the sharp.
