Funny you should mention this Gini--Friday I took a general skills test for a job--- typing was one of the tests! According to their test, I type 65wpm with 99% accuracy.

I began learning to type in 4-5th grade, maybe earlier. I remember going to the computer lab (aka the "duck pond"--never was certain why they called it that--other than it had blue carpet) in 2nd grade but I don't recall doing anything other than math programs.
