I remember being one of three geeks in high school business class because they taught you how to use the IBM Model 29 card punch, and that's the ONLY way undergrads programmed a computer, back in the mid-1970s.

There were at least four. I had an older brother by six years.

The lucky ones in class had the IBM selectric. No carriage needed.

Do you remember being so stressed for time tests, you would start typing before the teacher yelled, "Go" and think no one would notice a little typing cheat? Oh, wait, that was me.

My mother refused to let me take typing “because I wasn’t going to grow up to be somebody’s secretary -“ how could she have imagined I’d be a computer programmer just a few years later?!

Remember the Great Leap Forward with those IBM Selectric balls? I might be older than everyone here...

How many don't even know what the carriage return was for? Or why we tend to leave an extra space after a period? (that is an almost impossible habit to break) Or the white tape to cover a mistake and type over? Or the white liquid stuff? How about trying to type a master mimeo?

best class I took in HS. Typing. The Varsity Football Coach was the teacher (when he was not chasing cheerleaders.) He had it down. Still can do between 80 to 120 wpm. Not on a laptop though.
