I quit the Boy Scouts when they wanted me to earn a Morse Code merit badge. Then I joined the Navy. They made me a radioman. Learned to type in one week and learned Morse the next. Then we used a teletype, and I only ever used the key once. Then I promptly made a point of forgetting it. That was forty years ago.

I use English, thanks.
