ScottMcC 0 #5 February 9, 2005 don't forget surgical tools--I had to learn how to do everything right handed to survive that rotation. but the best comment I ever got, after a case, when my resident saw me writing a note, "I didn't know you were left handed."

More likely to work in IT. Among software developers, I have found that 1 out of 4 (sometimes 3) is left-handed. The reason that left-handed people die earlier is choice. It is so tiring to constantly be guiding right-handed people through life while simultaneously ruling the world. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happythoughts 0 #21 February 9, 2005 Quotehow about chalk boards I had a psychology prof in college who had a supply closet next to the chalkboard. I sat on the 3rd row back and closer to the right. I noticed that if I ignored his writing on the left-side blackboard, he would write more on my side of the room. By the end of class, he would only write on the right chalkboard, sometimes bumping his elbow on the cabinet. Is that a case of operant conditioning? He should have given me an A in the class.
