Thumb's the word

Well...as i'd promised..i'll post an article called "Thumb's the word" It's realli very interesting and sort of ,well, maybe related to when u were a foetus..Okie..this article is actually about how scientists had found out a way of interpreting whether a foetus, when it's born, will they be left- or right- handed..Here's a part of it.."Parents ofter try to figure out whether toddlers will be left- or right- handed. When they clasp their hands, which thumb is on the top? If they grab a crayon, which hand do they use? Many children, under the influence of rapidly developing brains, flip-flop between right and left, so parents mistakenly think they must be ambidextrous. " Actually..that's sort of wat my cousin do..she always changes hand ..sometimes left..sometimes right..but either way..i dun realli thk she's ambidextrous..Anyway..continuing .."In July (2004) scientists came up with an easy - and early- way to tell : Look at the sonograms. Fetuses sucking their right thum in the womb then to be right-handed, and vice-versa " Okie..that's the more important part la..i thk..the rest of the articel is more about the speculation of most experts..like the brain hemispheres, genetic processes...and so on so forth..The next article..should most likely be.."Chemists find new electron bonds"..
