Is there any reason to think that the idea of "left" is dealt with by the left 
side of the brain? Sounds highly unlikely to me. You certainly don't think of 
"front" only with the prefrontal cortex, or "back" only with the occipital 
lobe.

Apart from the one guy who gave a patch, this has been a very entertaining (if 
useless) thread  :)
