The article seems slight, alright. Researchers who waste their time with things like this do none of us any favors. They probably need to take a hit to the right side of the brain. Maybe it would start working then. As far as you go, k, I must say that it sucks to find that we use the same hand to write with. I hate being in any classification that you are in. In fact, I am re-stringing my guitar right now. Time to convert to righty. Maybe my allergies, AIDS, depression, drug problem, schizophrenia, insomnia, and spatial challenges will all go away and I will drive better. Who knows?

It might be easier for me to cut off your hands and rip out your tongue.

[ Well, you're nothing if not consistent, but really, aren't physical threats against people you've never met, across the internet, a little silly? I have no doubt you're really a nice guy on the inside, buried beneath all those layers of whatever fashionable angsty ethos you've chosen to accessorize with. But maybe not... either way, if you can find joy trolling online and spitting blood at a roomful of coffeehouse punkers, then who'm I to argue with that, really. -k]

Sad to say, but there's probably no nice guy under the the layers of fashionable angsty ethos. Sorry.
