Im a self taught touch typist.
I learned at a very young age in my teens.
I learned so that I could copy morse code at higher rates of speed than I could hand write.
After a while there was a disconnect of the delay of hear the dits and dahs translated into which key to press and it became almost subconcious automatic.
At that time I could copy code at 60wpm, talk on the telephone, and read a magazine all at the same time.
Now Im lucky to copy code at 30wpm and get it all correct.
I can still type pretty fast though.
But I still cant find one of these !
