Pretty cool and useful. |
 "We have gone forth from our shores repeatedly over the last hundred years and we've done this as recently as the last year in Afghanistan and put wonderful young men and women at risk, many of whom have lost their lives, and we have asked for nothing except enough ground to bury them in, and otherwise we have returned home to seek our own, you know, to seek our own lives in peace, to live our own lives in peace."

Only 113 wpm - the fact that they don't double-space after the ends of sentences kept jacking me up.  |

For aught I care, you ought to be able to spell things however you'd like, right?

I cracked 80 wpm once but my average is around 70. The punctuation marks screw me up big time, especially the dash.

I'm old-school, so I do two. I also am a big fan of the Oxford (serial) comma.

The Jack Trice Story ESPN & Wiki "My thoughts just before the first real college game of my life: The honor of my race, family and self are at stake," Trice wrote. "Everyone is expecting me to do big things. I will!" "I really don't even remember exactly what happened," Klink after losing 15-13 at JackTriceStadium "a great enviroment for college football. Just like going into OSU or UM."Greenway after losing 23-3 a JackTriceStadium | |

I'm old-school, so I do two. I also am a big fan of the Oxford (serial) comma. I'm used to the APA rules because of my Journalism background. Only in high school typing class did I use double spacing.

I usually type faster when I am able to think about it instead of reading it and then trying to type it.
