Am I the only one that had a typing class where they taught that you press the Shift key with the hand you're not using to type the letter you want?

Example: K = left shift, R = right shift.

I can use either one, but I have to -think- to use the correct one... So I don't. It's much faster to simply stretch my fingers.
I do the same. I sometimes try to use the correct ones, but it isn't made much easier by the fact that some keys are easier shift-pressed with one hand. I'd feel weird using the left shift key to get a "_" when the right shift key is directly next to the "-/_" one.
