I can type faster than I can think sometimes. Like just now, I said all that, then didn't know what to say so now I'm saying this, and even that happened quite quickly.
I learned in the mid to late 80's using Apple II typing games. That was computer class, for the most part.
I got really fast in the mid 90's when I was finally old enough to act like a troll in chat rooms.
These days I could probably do 70 wpm but I haven't tested that in awhile.
