Learning how to type.

You either had to take typing, or some other class that I can't remember during my junior year. The other class didn't appeal to me at all, obviously as I cannot even remember it now, so I took typing. By happenstance my best friend was in the same class.

The class taught me a skill that I use till this day, some 38 years later.

The cell membrane is a biphospholipid layer that's 7.5 millimicrons thick.

It said 7.5 millimicrons in the textbook, so that's what's been etched indelibly in my mind.

That nobody gives a shit about you, especially if you are in any way not mainstream, and they’d rather you not exist than to help you.
