Hi
 I once took a touch typing course. At the end of the
first 2 weeks I was at 20 words a minute. At the
end of the semester, I was at 20 words a minute.
I'm just as fast with two fingers as with all 10.
I type this message with just two and the right
thumb.

that has an EC-1 that wants to make patch modules for
