Today someone on a Vancouver radio show called in the longest word you can type on one row of the keyboard.

Rather than say what the word is (yet), I was wondering if it was common knowledge or neat trivia as it's new to me anyway.

I thought it was kinda neat trivia.

It's the first I heard of it, so I wasn't sure if every one knew already and I had just missed it before.

I know it may come as quite a shock to you (hope you're sitting down), but I've never taken a keyboarding class or anything where you'd probably pick up something like that.

(True story, not a single typing class! Who'd a thunk it?)
