Generally but occasionally there's some a few symbols I don't use often that I have to glance down to check up on.

I've been typing without looking since around middle school, and I have a steady 70wpm with good accuracy.

Sometimes. It's not because I can actually type, but rather I've memorized for the most part where the position of the keys are. I still look down though, but I can not look at times.

Yeah. I could in Grade 5 at Primary School, when I was about 9 or 10. I just had a nack at it, even though I hardly used computers.

I never look at the keyboard except for symbols like, #, $, %, ^, etc. Any typos I make are because of my horrid spelling abilities or because some letters might be reversed in a word.

Yeah I can touch type but I find it better to occasionally glance down after each word. That way I can type as fast as I could posibly ever need too also reducing the number of errors. I type far faster than I write, my writing is terrible.

Lol that is a funny poll. Yeah I think it is pretty easy to type without looking at the keyboard. Although I only use 2 fingers on each hand, it is pretty easy for me to type without looking. I do glance once at the begining of whatever I start typing just to get a visual reference on where I am on the keyboard. But that is about it.
