Well see Phillipa that is the cool part in this study they found that in lefties brains the emotions are governed in the reverse of right handed people. So say if you are righthanded and your emotions are governed by your right side, I don't know just an example then in a left handed person it would be the reverse. I didn't realize that. I always thought that one side governed one group of skills while another side handled another group. But these studies showed that wasn't the case. Wild huh....which explains why when I was getting my degree at Vandy they found that people with certain reading disabilities had in fact been destined to be lefthanded instead of righthanded and instead teachers had made them right handed and messed up their processing of the written word. Wild huh. Another study showed that handedness is actually pre-determined inutero not after birth. That whatever thumb a fetus sucks prior to birth usually is the hand they write with. Almost 90% remained that way at 12 years old. Wild huh.....rk Oh yeah thanks about the smart part, I am not sure about that but thanks rk
