As  off topic as this is, interesting...  I can't quite imagine learning to 
write letters in both directions, nor can I imagine the saved CR compensating 
for the smudge of unintelligible goo left being after I rub my hand across my 
barely understandable handwriting.  I do like the idea of reading it though, so 
perhaps the benefits come later.
