Isn’t the risk of death 100% for everyone?

Yes,
including those very unlucky women who've lost a right arm.

Thanks. I’m both (throw/bat feft - write right). Brain damage when? at birth? Cavemen were right handed in the same % as today - known from marks on their teeth. Brain damage in 1/10% of the populaton for the last 100,000 years? Hard to see this.

You wee right. The upside-down and backwards was easy, so long as I didn’t think about it too much. Like typing, it is automatic unless you start thinking about each letter and slow yourself. Thanks for the diversion and another way to drive nosy people crazy ;o).
