[CW] "Handedness" -- hand key vs keyer

[Richard Knoppow]

    I am strongly right handed but in the past could use a straight key 
fairly well with either hand. Not so for a bug. A curious thing: 
typewriters, using the standard keyboard, are left handed. I type just 
fine although not a speed merchant. For some reason I don't feel my 
"handedness" when typing.
