    Are you left Handed ?

    I am, and now they have found the gene for it.

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/6923577.stm

    Scientists have discovered the first gene which appears to increase the odds of being left-handed.
    The Oxford University-led team believe carrying the gene may also slightly raise the risk of developing psychotic mental illness such as schizophrenia......

            The ubiquitous 'they' say that left-handers are more creative, is there any truth in this?

                  I write with my left hand, but can do every thing else with ether hand. Although throwing etc I find better in my right hand.
