Loading ...Ps as far as left handed schools should also teach that and as I mentioned before be more left handed friendly. It’s just another form of diversity not geographical but in the brain. That’s a good thing not bad.

Yes their is Genes involved. Can’t remember exactly like D gene. But the difference is directional. Theres two and the other genes can’t remember which can go either way. That’s where you get the ambidextrous and left handed.
The connections to right and left especially pointing to dyslexia is a compensation to the brain using the visual side in right due to the problems in left side that connect the three different centers involved in speech and reading.
Not all people with dyslexia are smart as not all people who don’t have it are smart or not.
I started studying in back in the 70 s. Schools were failing kids and they didn’t understand dyslexia. They couldn’t understand why someone with high intelligence could have trouble reading less they were doing it on purpose. In other words they associated dyslexia with learning disabilities and so on to low IQ and were wrong. You can have a high IQ and dyslexia. Because of it children were over looked or even punished by schools.
Because of that many kids particularly boys could wind up in trouble.
Later one psychologist teacher said he believed that dyslexia was caused by mothers who smoked.
I disagreed with that too because many mothers didn’t smoke nor were exposed to it. Plus in our generation many people smoked but their kids didn’t get it. I don’t argue it is a neurotoxin and not good for the fetus circulation.
On Left-Handed Brains
I disagree with Goldielocks. Left-handedness is not a ‘learned’ behavior. It is genetically ingrained. When my mother was teaching me to print the alphabet before I started school, I was using either hand. I asked here which hand I should use. Mom told me to use which ever hand felt best and easiest to use. I settled on my left hand.
My lifelong friend and I studied consciousness and brains since high school. He became a REEG tech… brainwave technician. So we have read and shared a lot of research. Lefties have a larger nerve bundle connecting the two halves of the brain… “Inter-Cortical Communication” is vastly improved. Along with that goes more glial cells & synapses in the cortex.
So the result is that we are better able to fully utilize both halves of the brain, and score higher on IQ tests. Einstein was left-handed.
But we are also more prone to dyslexia… left-right symmetry mix-ups if we don’t learn to deal with that early in life. Dyslexic people are really smart…. if they learn to deal with that. All lefties have this to some extent. I do a few noncritical things right handed, but eating and writing are left hand.
I have an engineer friend who is the most perfectly ambidextrous person I have ever known. After an ID theft at his bank, he changed his check signature to a full-script signature… backwards. You had to hold it to a mirror to read the script of his name signature. Now here’s the killer…. He could do this backwards signature with EITHER HAND. They looked identical.
I did have to check his work, though. He was prone to wire a terminal strip with color codes in the wrong, reverse order. The old left-right symmetry error.
Alex – chopsticks
“Hashi” in Japanese. Having lived in Hawaii most of my adult life, I eat with chopsticks easily. Our group was gathered at an Inn around a boiling pot of Sukiyaki and some of us were ‘dipping’ in the pot before Mama-san served our bowls. We were a casual crowd, so she overlooked the lack of proper protocol. When she saw me bring a cube of soft tofu out of the boiling soup with left-handed chopsticks, she said something in Japanese to our company host. I inquired what she said, and he was rather embarassed, but translated that: “She says you are very good with the wrong hand!” I replied that was a ‘left-handed compliment’ and I was not offended.
I had a fellow next to me at a lunch counter sitting on stools who turned sideways and just stared at me as I ate with left handed chopsticks. I was careful to keep my left elbow close in so I did not invade his arm space, but he just sat there sideways and stared at me as I ate. I smiled at him and just kept eating. He looked like he had never seen anything so odd in his life, with jaw hanging slightly open.
Gold Oil and China virus
Spot gold, which tracks live trades in bullion, was down just 31 cents, at $1,557.42 by 3:15 PM ET (20:15 GMT).
“The world is reacting in a deflationary manner to the news of a spread of the pneumonia-like virus in China,” Zaner Metals said in a note. “The trade is justified in factoring in some slowing fears and that in turn has applied pressure to gold, silver and nearly every physical commodity.”
Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) said it anticipated the coronavirus could cause global oil demand to fall by 260,000 barrels per day on average, while crude itself could lose much as $3 per barrel.
The Zaner Metals note suggested that the impact could spread to other commodities as well, as China was the biggest buyer of raw materials.
“Increasing the potential deflationary impact of the new virus is the fact that the Chinese New Year celebrations start this coming weekend and that usually results in roughly 300 million people traveling inside China, and reducing that dramatically would remove a tremendous annual stimulus for the Chinese economy,” the analysts added.
Autocatalyst agent palladium rebounded from Wednesday’s drop to a new peak in futures though not on the spot price.
