Of course, that was back when we did our typing on typewriters, and boy, were those typing classes noisy! A single typewriter produces an impressive amount of noise on its own, so if you don't remember the cacophony of a room full of typewriters, you can probably imagine it well enough. (Don't forget these typewriters were being operated by junior high students, to whom restraint was, is, and always will be a perfect stranger.) While those junior high typing classes were my earliest opportunity to learn the skill, my own kids were in elementary school when they started “keyboarding” classes in the late '90s. And even that seems antiquated now that babies can use smartphones and tablets before they're fully capable of speech! While I still make good use of those ace typing skills I acquired in junior high, I freely admit I can't type nearly as quickly on my phone as I can on a keyboard. Luckily, this newsletter is written on the latter!
