i've got a question for you left handed guys out there ...

does it feel "weird" to have to shift with your right hand? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)

i'm asking because i'm pretty much "ambidextrous" (both handed), i can write with either hand and use tools with either (yeah, yeah, i know, add lots of funny jokes here ...),
but when i drove a stick-shift in england, i was suprised that it felt somewhat more "natural" to shift with my left hand.
i had a hard time with driving on the wrong side of the road and i almost killed myself in a two lane roundabout, but i liked the shifter to the left.

kinda strange, huh?
