And the enevitable PC support as everyone must be given a choice of RH
or LH threads for jars and fasteners ...and strings. Aaaaaargh! Why
don't they make right/left-handed velcro shoes for that matter? Ok,
facetious again. [which is the only word in English where all the
vowells are in alphabetical order. Off-topic enough? I was always the
kid who got lost on the museum field trips]
Actually, I find Martin's Syndrome interesting: It means, like many of
us, he prefers to seperate his elbows to open the jar. To put the left
hand on top involves bringing the elbows together. It may be simply a
question of strength (or preference) which is, I think, seperate from
handedness.

I unscrew lids (as does my wife, who is also RH) by holding the jar in
my RH and doing the unscrewing with my left.
I'm a lefty who holds the jar with the left hand to unscrew with the
right.
[Caution: the following is wholly facetious] One day we'll have
justice and
a whole line of products packaged in properly left-handed jars!
