    Our Story So Far: The story line, if you have not had time to follow the previous 790 or so entries (!) is my slow realization that earth is being invaded by left handed DNA people ...
    Please enjoy a visit to my work web site and read my papers.

  1. FamilyTreeDNA (https://www.familytreedna.com/) will switch your DNA to left handed form for a small fee!! binoculars First reported on 2017 Feb 02, new as of 2017 Feb 02 (Thanks to Rikard Erlandsson, for pointing this one out!)

  2. The new book The Gene Machine: How Genetic Technologies Are Changing the Way We Have Kids--and the Kids We Have by Bonnie Rochman and published by Scientific American, demonstrates clearly that the new babies all will have left handed DNA by genetic engineering. binoculars First reported on 2017 mar 01, new as of 2017 mar 01

For your first visit to the Left Handed Hall of Fame page I suggest that you follow the story over all of the years. After that you can look at each year individually from the table below. Note: just because a year has gone by does not mean we haven't found more examples for that year!

1997 and 1998 were bumper crop years
and 1999 beat them more than 2 fold. 2000 was a record year, thanks to help from friends around the world (60 of the 97 cases, 63%!). 2001 exceeded even that record! 2002 was lower - are we making headway?
