Some time ago, we had a discussion on the connotations that can go with right and left. zmjezhd's mention of Low Franconian made me realize that very often, if I see low-something, I think lesser, not as good; and that if I see high-something, I'll think lofty, better. Am I the only one who does this, and if not, how did high and low come to carry these overtones of better/not so good?
