Don, I know what "placebo" means, and I'm pretty good with "science", but what is "placebo science"?

I forgot about this. I used to think everybody could do this: I can mirror-write. I can write something with my left hand and simultaneously write it backwards with my right. It may be because I'm technically ambidextrous. I do backwards well-used to take notes in college backwards for a short while.

The following happened, which may be interesting to people, or, OTOH, be a while load of "who gives a shit?!" When I was just learning to use scissors, my parents though "Oh great - now we have to find left-handed scissors" and by the time they found some, I was using the right-handed ones with my right hand. So now, I can use scissors, as well as wrenches, screwdrivers and other tools, in either hand.
