Heh, in that case, I'm a two-fifteener.

i tested it on a prog just by hitting random keys at top speed. I cant even get that over 150 wpm and i even type 60 wpm.

Uh, mebbe 10 minutes is exxagerating, and you seem to enjoy making above-average-size-posts (happy now, not "big", but "above-average-size-posts").

And I highly doubt that DFD can do 200 WPM.

Yeah, well, then he's one lying SOB...

Not to me, I hope. If you did, I'm afraid I'd have to fire you.

Okay, from a recent post on GH, this is his typing speed:

average: 100
top: 250

Then why doesn't he have a multi-grillion $$$ job as some big secretary or sumptin.

I'm skeptical as to whether he did 250. It's pretty muc impossible.

impossible at 100 even.

My mom, who actually spent 2 years learning how to type and is an expert at it, goes ~95-100 normally. Definetly posible.

Oh, by the way, I interviewed a court reporter two years ago. She typed at the average of 275 WPM.

What DFD says could be true. Of course, this court reporter has to type super fast all the time, and has been typing that fast every other day for the past 5 years.

For anyone who likes sci-fi I suggest to read Stanislaw Lem's books. They're good. I have read almost them all. (Now I'm reading the last one (of those I know...))

EB posted this on the other page, but I've read it now: Ender's Game. It's just, plain cool. Orson Scott Card is so talented - read anything from him, but especially EG.

Inside the sky by William Langweishe is a good book, explores the psychological effect flying has.

Well the Lem's last book was suprisingly so crappy I decided to leave it there. But all the others were good.

BTW one of Lem's books is Solaris, and there has been made two movies out of it... Though the second and newest was just bullshit!

The Wheel of Time books are really good.

TOM CLANCY ROOLZ!! I also have been a great fan of edgar rice burroughs since I was like 7. I also love the lord of the rings trilogy

Tom Clancy is good, but not THAT good. Some of his non-fiction is pure s*** (Into the Storm) while other non-fiction is good (Shadow Warriors). Haven't read all the fiction, but Clear and Present Danger was good, although the movie sucked.
