We invented cars *cough* so we're right. In fact, we invented everything. Including your country

i'd say that's more shocking than the revelation that you're a demon! what could be more shocking than having lived through the 80's without hearing edge?

wait ... are you part french?

as far as writing, holding stuff, etc. I'm a lefty. I've become rather ambidextrous though, since learning to play the synth requires equal attention from both hands.

Yes. But that's not what I was thinking of As I told my main accuser, Edge didn't chart here, so I can be forgiven, no?

Dammit Just when a guy needs a little understanding.. I'm only about one-eighth French, from a mad old great-grandmother - she hasn't tainted me too much, naturellement. Elle n'a eu aucun effet sur moi de quelque façon

WTF?

I can't imagine changing gears with the right hand. you engage the clutch with the left while changing gears with the right and accelerate with the right. the sides of my brain get confused thinking about it. for us gears and clutch are all left and in motion together, it makes more sense to my brain. Also most people are right handed so having the main driving hand being the left one is like them making baseball gloves for the right hand and leaving the left to do the throwing. itjust makes more sense in my head for the drivers seat to be on the right.

I'm a lefty though and got confused when I first went to school and tried to do it exactly like the teacher when she showed us how to write so I tried to do it that way.
