Maybe chess is a right-brain activity,

Otherwise, I don't get it.

I mean, one might expect a bit of 'me too' mentality, but this seemed excessive.
Whatever.

Albert Einstein was left handed. (And Ned Flanders).
Leonardo da Vinci as well.


Etymologically, left-handedness is related to "sinister":

late Middle English (in the sense ‘malicious, underhand’ ): from Old French sinistre or Latin sinister ‘left’.



Courtesy of the grammar .... oh fug it.

I am the only left handed vegetarian on the site with a superhuman wrist and a penchant for crumpets.

Clearly, modesty is your second greatest virtue.

I reckon I would be a better chess player if I could afford a right handed board.

You could interest me. However I would have scruples getting an egg from a vegetarian.
