I just did a quick look up of Lateralization of brain function:

Quote:
Brain function lateralization is evident in the phenomena of right- or left-handedness and of right or left ear preference[citation needed], but a person's preferred hand is not a clear indication of the location of brain function. Although 95% of right-handed people have left-hemisphere dominance for language, 18.8% of left-handed people have right-hemisphere dominance for language function. Additionally, 19.8% of the left-handed have bilateral language functions.[5] Even within various language functions (e.g., semantics, syntax, prosody), degree (and even hemisphere) of dominance may differ.[6] As well, through the experimental results from the effects of handedness and correlations between lateral differences and pathological data, it has been accepted that visual field effects could also be related to hemispheric specialization. [7]

Interesting and would be something to explore further.

Right now, I am starting my list of what needs to be done during our week off from work (no vacation pay) and I am finding out that there is not enough time to get it all done. So, normal life.
