Paul, I thought your suggestion of using the left hand was a good one. As a
'lefty' in a right-handed world I'm forever using my right hand to carry out
functions that many right-handers wouldn't dream of using their left hand
for. (Left hand? Impossible!) It just wouldn't cross their minds. Many
(most?) left-handers have, through necessity,  become adept at using *both*
their hands, so your suggestion is enlightened.

Peter.
