I had guessed between 20 and 25 wpm. I managed to copy all of it, but 
it would have REALLY frosted those young whipper-snappers if they 
had done it with a sounder and hand key.

Personally, I thought the telegrapher's outfits were MOST appropriate.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. I downloaded a copy and have played it about a 
dozen times...so far.
