   Well, think about it this way.   
      
   I can easily type 80 words per minute with my "finger memory" right?   
   So can others on this newsgroup most likely, and probably much faster.   
      
   But if you asked me where every key is, I'd never be able to tell you.   
      
   What kind of "memory" would you call it then where the fingers always know   
   EXACTLY where to find every single letter, but not the full thinking brain?
