I await the day us blue eyed folk can come out from the sewers and be welcomed with open arms.

About 10% to 13% of the population is left handed and I can probably find data that confirms that. :)

"At least left-handies can be "re-educated"... "

My grandfather was a leftie. His father was a sinistrophobe and subjected my grandfather to all sorts of humiliation to "beat" those inclinations out of him. As an adult he finally managed to live a full life as a leftie, or rather: "ambidextrous". And swore that he would never walk that same dark path himself.

Let's all stand up against the terrible injustice of Sinistrophobia.

My friends grampa was left handed and had his left arm cut off in a factory accident. So he had to learn how to use his right hand foreverything.

Downer! - back on topic: to me, the BEST thing about Northstar was that his homosexuality didn't put his character in a pretty box with a pretty bow.  He was full of conflicting characteristics that didn't have any "aha, so THAT'S why he-" angles.  His being gay didn't make him a jerk, but neither was he JUST a jerk who happened to be gay.

Take away the super-powers and he's still the most interesting Alphan.
