That is not a joke. In high-school typing class, the typewriters (remember
typewriters?) had blank keys, i.e., no letters shown.
Well, I have the letters licked ... except I keep getting "stire" for
"store" so I need to train that right hand a bit to the right ... It's those
keys like Home, Delete, Page up/down, etc. that I use all the time, that I
need my fingers to relearn ....
And those function keys are so close together ... and no space between F4
and F5, and F8 and F9 --- that will take some getting used to ...
And I will confess a tendency to look at the keyboard for a lot of the
special characters ....
But for now, hooray, electricity back on .... ...
