I couldn't possibly comment!

But then my 'hand' became shifted when working the MPN11 truck. Watch on the right wrist, to be able to read the dial under the [essentially] feeble pea light above the Comms switches.

And during the years on the T82 at Eastern, with a right-hand joystick and numerous left-hand comms and other panels, I guess I became a bit amphibious



I now use my computer mouse with my left hand, enabling a free right hand to hit "ENTER"/whatever for speed and ergonomic convenience. Funny the way old habits/customs persist.
