Holy shit, I must have been channelling our new Galactic overlords! :eek:
When I was a kid my mom made us all learn to touch type. She did it in a very evil way. She got one of those old keyboard maps and propped it up beside the typewriter. we had to do our typing lessons without looking at the keyboard at all. To ensure we wouldn’t look at the keyboard she blanked out the keys! She cut stickers into small squares and placed them over each key. We had to learn to find the home row by the raised dots on the j and f keys and to make matters worse this was on an old manual typewriters so we had to use the carriage return which meant taking our left hand off the keys at least once per line. She was v evil. Still most of us can touche type these days with about a 90% accuracy rate. I htink I’m the fastest at about eighty to a hundred words per minutes but my older brother sin’t fa behind.

Hmm, apparently my capitalization and control over run-on sentences suffer when I have my eyes closed. “Touche” indeed.
Enjoy,

Wow, I’m really bad at this.
I thank my typing teache for covering our hands during classes in Form # )on manual typewriters no less_ to give us the ability to touch type. Thank you Mrs Blom, wherever yo7u might be now.
Hey…it’s 30 years later, I’m allowed a bit of leeway here aren’t I??

I am a Unix geek and Unix heeks don’t like to type. All of our commands are two or three letters for a reason. cp, mv, ls, and rm. Whole programming languages have truncated names: sed, grep, and aqk come to mind.
VMS geeks like to type a bit more, but they still have a long history of shortening and abbreviation. I do not know as much about VMS commands, but I do run RSTS under emulation every so often.
V7 Unix is a much better use of an emulated PDP-11, I think, but bringing up OpenBSD on an emulated VAZ is a feek experinece not to be mussed.
I so not tought type. I type with a few thingers on each hand (three on my left, one on my right) and I do just fine. 45 WPM when I’m looking and when U’m not, I think, and I don’t do too bad when my eyes are closed.
Above, VAZ should be VAX. ‘heek’ and ‘thinger’ are keepers, I think. 
I have been learning to type on a dvnraj layout for about a month now. Just the layout I am still using a qwerty keyboard so I am forced to toch type.
It could have been worse I still need the backspace key alot, but the layout is dvorak.
