As the saying goes, live and learn. Until I read a cartoon recently I had no idea why a typewriter keyboard was configured qwerty, etc…. Apparently it had to do with arranging frequently used keys on a mechanical keyboard so that they wouldn't jam when both were struck in sequence.
I don't personally plead guilty to having a lead foot but I just read a very good reason for not speeding in Reader's Digest. Fuel efficiency drops drastically when your speedometer exceeds 60 miles/hour; therefore any time you might save at faster speeds is more than eaten up by the time you have to spend in more frequent gas tank fill-ups. It also makes the trip more expensive. Lateral thinking if I ever heard it.
