Also, the desks we had in my schools all were build for right handed
writers - the tops were somewhat like the numeral 9 - you had to slide in to
sit from the L H side and could rest your right hand on the leg of the
nine - sure wasn't conducive to L H writing.

I remember those. Where I went to school they actually had a limited number of "Left-hand" desks available - just like the regular desks but shaped like a backwards number 9 - to accommodate left handed students.

Seems like most of them were concentrated in the elementary school. I guess they figured that by the time they reached Junior High School the lefties had learned to cope with living in a right hand world.

Didn't realize lefties were sinister until I got to the 9th grade.
