[GreenKeys] Typing Instruction

[Jim Haynes]

There were not many boys in the typing class in my high school circa
1955, but I was not the only one.

A friend who was an old Western Union operator could touch type pretty
fast on the 2B printer or the perforator-only machine.  But for a
regular typewriter he did hunt-and-peck.  Western Union preferred the
celluloid key tops over the green spring cushion kind.  It's my opinion
that one can probably type faster that way when your fingers don't have
to travel the extra distance.
