Hi Charles, Only 20 words a minute? I am surprised any place would have such a low requirement. Most places I've ever applied for wanted at least 40 words a minute bare minimum, and required accurate spelling. Something I'm afraid I don't see a lot of these days. I don't know if it is pure laziness, people don't care, but I notice that a lot of people simply can't spell when posting messages to mailing lists. Sure everyone makes a mistake or two, but some are way beyond that.
