As a kid leftie in the  late 50s when I went to a bug then  electronic 
keyer I  learned to  send left handed with the keyer set  for a rightie. 
I found it easy. My keyer  has always been set so a rightie  could just 
sit and start sending normally. After he moved the keyer to the right 
side of the OP desk. This has served me well guest operating or on FD. 
NO changing just slide the keyer to the proper side of the OP position.
As a leftie in a rightie world we learn early to function with  things 
not  set for us. We adapt. Only time I was ever angry at righties was 
grade school in Chicago in the 50's. Dumb teacher gave me my only 
failing grade because I couldn't slant my writing the CORRECT way! I 
forgave but NEVER forgot.
