I have noticed a distinct break in the number of poeple who can touch type based on age, at least among people who have been using a computer for a while. People older than 27 or so can touch type; people younger than this can't. There are exceptions, of course. Lots of people never learn to type properly, even when they have to type everything. Some people learn, even if they have been using mice since the age of 4. David, who learned to type on a cardpunch.
