Now the right-handed versus left-handed question is extremely interesting to me, and actually something I've thought about a lot, since I don't really know for sure. I write and draw with my right hand, but hold pens and brushes with the "hook" of a lefty. I'm utterly right-brained -- hopeless at math, science, or linear reasoning. I have memories, when I was very young, of being "trained" by my mother and Na to use my right hand to scribble and then draw -- the "correct" hand. So I may well be a lefty who was conditioned to be a righty; I'm just not entirely sure. But everyone who's ever seen me writing something by hand is always struck by the left-handed-style curl in my wrist and fingers. They never could get me to hold a pencil or pen in my right hand the conventional way. :) Atticus
