Not a good idea, Bridget, the poor dextrals might feel left out! *chuckle* you mean kinda like those unfortunates who didn't make the Feb-May birthday clique?

you may have merely given it another sense, max. the ambidextrous of the world have previously defined it as "clumsy, maladroit (the opposite of ambidextrous): ambilaevous" - as usual, you've come up short.

Zowie - I made it into the lefty clique and the birthday clique!
Seriously folks - how many lefties out there? I PM Max to propose a poll, but it just popped up orgasmically.

Right handed, although ambidextrous in many tasks. (Which I regard as unremarkable) Aries. (1 in 12 chance there) Red hair. (Now we're talking some serious recessive alleles!)

I had three brothers, two of us right handed, two left handed. To this day when I have to seat people around a table I ask if anyone's left handed and place them appropriately. wow February 10 1929 Year of the Earth Snake.

Very considerate of you, wow. When I was in high school, my Bio teacher seated me (a right-hander) on the left side of a lab table. My lab partner, of course, ended up being left-handed! We bumped elbows all semester. Ow.

Just spotted this thread. Virago was claimed by the publishing world in the early seventies. Styled as 'the first mass-market publisher for 52% of the population – women. An exciting new imprint for both sexes in a changing world'. They have continued to publish fascinating works, especially those re-discovered from the days when women writers were not so highly regarded (Unimaginable now, sic)! See their website for their history: http://www.virago.co.uk"One of the most vigorous, stylish and successful British publishing imprints, Virago is the outstanding international publisher of women's literature. It is the largest women's imprint in the world and has made commercial success of publishing books of quality and originality." Note for Bill - You can even buy the t-shirt!
