Funny but I still hunt and peck. Done it all my life never could remeber where my fingers were supposed to go. I actually would take and type dictation for a lawyer I worked for and he never knew I was hunting and pecking cause I kept right up with him then I would do a spell check and all was well :)
You sound like my son. He never took a typing lesson in his life, and you should see his fingers move over a keyboard! But he just uses it for computer gaming.
