Yes, Timmy.
Ken Iverson, the inventor of APL and J told me that in school he sat with his left hand tied to his side so that he would learn to write with his right.
He did! He would write the first half of a line on the blackboard with his right hand and then cross to the other side of the board and write the scond half of the line with his left hand!
His audience could see more of what he wrote, more of the time than any other lecturer.
Love,
Anthony

Timmy, thank you for reminding me of Grasshopper's terrific post on being left handed. (Of course it's a segue into being different and being gay.) I've just reposted it on a couple of other sites that appeal to the younger readers.
