Hold up there, Clem.... 299 characters in 5 seconds. At the standard wpm computation of 5 characters per word, that comes to 59.8 words in 1/12 of a minute. That's only 717.6 words per minute.

Oh.  I wasn't aware that was how they calculated wpm (words per minute).  My assumption would have been count the number of words typed in one minute.  Since I typed 63 "words" in 5 seconds, and there are 5 seconds is 1/12 of one minute, I simply multiplied (incorrectly I might add!) 63 * 12 = 756!

Of course, I'm a doof and this has been carried waaaay too far.  ;)

I can't slip anything by you guys!
