Re: The write direction (was: Interesting Brain/Language Nugget of Info)

Darn it Ray, I was afraid you were going to burst Ornstein's bubble
with historical reality. :)  Well, whether or not it has had an
influence on the history of writing, the facts about the differing
capabilities of the left and right brains (as outlined by Ornstein, as
opposed to the "pop psych" accounts) are interesting enough, and the
cross-wiring of the visual field is factual.

So these things certainly have the potential to influence these
choices, whether or not they in fact have done so.
