Nice thing about aikido and arnis - equal time practicing with both hands. (Except, of course, for bokken, as all Japanese swordsmen are right-handed by tradition.)

I can't write or throw left-handed (at least, not well). Tying my shoes is a bit more challenging.

OTOH, I can fly from either side of the cockpit. (Left is better, now, as that lets me grip the yoke with the left, and only worry about levers with the right.)

Again, thanks for the well-wishes.

Cheers,

M
