I'm left-handed but use my right for sending as taught by my dad, who
called me a "lucky leftie." However, a few years back I injured my right
arm and found I could relearn pretty easily. Interesting that the straight
key is more difficult, and not up to the right's performance: not as smooth
or fast.
