I think in the old days children at school were taught to write righthanded no matter what. I guess it had something to do with the old fountain-pens or something. So I guess James Marshall Hendrix just learned to write righthanded.

My Mum is a similar age and she is left handed but was taught to write right handed. She now writes left handed.

No not at all (how would you fake such a thing?) I would have never thought that they would be opposites. From the video he seems to sign right-handed with ease. We all know how easily he handles a guitar as a lefty.

My left handed dad had to learn to write right handed as all the school desks were right handed and the teachers told him it was more proper.

I thought I read somewhere that centuries ago it was thought that left-handed people were believed to be evil. Anyone else know anything about that?

What happened to the formatting bar (bold-font-smilies-etc..) in the reply box? It is on the reply box in Hot Stuff.
