Strange thing, a few days ago my wife had a dream about you and now suddenly you're back like aces. BTW, mass is relative, scalars are invariant ;-). Ken

Perhaps the challenges of living in a right-handed world exercise their mental capacities from early years.

It leans to the right about 0.7 percent. ;-) Sue...

It's so bad that Toronto Mensa wanted to get a special waiver in Toronto (average IQ 80) so that dummies can join Mensa, IOW's dummy down the test so the above aveage idiot can join! That same province poisoned 3000 people in Walkertown then blamed them for drinking the water, and then the SAR's outbreak that killed hundreds, (reduced to 50+ by creative accounting). In the Civilization Index, Ontario has taken the greatest decline in peaceful world history. We won't even insure business in Ontario anymore!

That would have to be the case, Since righter handers invented the normal disriibutiion. And it has nothing to do with intelligence other than that left-handed Lawyers on average burn their hands on McDonald's Coffee more often than right-handed Lawyers. So it's been renamed the Canadian Distribution in Honor Of Captain Kirk, who discovered the rule, rather than The Normal Distribution. |
