I think that Jaime and Stephen did a very good job here. All the stuff about
hearts, livers and so on is only guesswork IMO. Pychological studies often lack
statistical significance, especially with such exotic topics. BTW I'm driving on
the left side of the road now for one week (and the following) with a
left-steered car from France and it took me only seconds to switch to the
English system. It as naturally to me as the German right-side driving. One
gests accustomed very soon.

Best regards,
Michael
