I'm pretty good on the keyboard, but have to look at thenumbers and symbols. I also had a high school typing class. The teacher passed me either out of charity or so that she would not have me inher classagain to repeat it. But daily use of a typewriter and computer in my work served to hone the basic skill she gave me.

I despair at the lack of education in American History in today'sschools. I find students today have not even a basicappreciation of thethebrilliance and braveryof the founding fathers, the dangers ofvesting too much power and control ingovernment,or why our Constitution is such a wonderful document. They truly have no understanding of how much has been lost and is being lost every day.
