A Typing History

This quote was added by gthomas25
I learned to touch type in 1968 when I was in a three-week course during the summer between my junior and senior year in high school. Our classroom had manual typewriters with blank keys; we were supposed to look at a big chart at the front of the room as we did our exercises. I wasn't a very fast typist by the end of that course, but I didn't have to look at my fingers. Personal computers were far in the future then.
