Default Righty Tighty - But Why?

(Ken Sterling) wrote in message ws.com...
I was, up until about third grade (which was a very long time ago)
able to write with either hand, without any difference in quality...
of course a 3rd grader really doesn't write that well anyway, but
at that point in life, my teacher insisted that I choose ONE. I chose
the left (although I still can write with either, better with the
left). People ask me why did I choose the left - response "because I
can see where I'm going when I'm writing as my hand isn't in the way".
For what it's worth, I can also write backwards. Also upside down-
forwards. Also upside down-backwards. The talent (if it can be
called that) really hasn't been all that useful unless I'm lettering
the inside of a door glass or the underside of a translucent plastic
lid on a storage box, etc. I don't have any problem doing it, but
sometimes people have a terrible time reading backwards handwriting.

Wires aren't crossed. You are running on AC instead of DC.
