I can type up to 80WPM when I know what I'm doing, making a few mistakes here and there. I use the backspace key constantly. I expect that, of the many sequences I have learned, a lot include a typo and the backspace key. Suboptimal evolution at its finest, eh?


For the record, I am against the mosque at Ground Zero also.

It is at least in bad taste.

Then, if *they* are still here, we'll re-consider the issue (place back on table for consideration).
