can you mouse with your left hand?

have you ever tried it?

although I don't have carpel tunnel syndrome, I do have a lot of tension in my right hand and arm. I thought it would be a good idea to give it a rest.

I wonder how long it will take me to become proficient.

how about you left-handed people out there? do you mouse with your left hand or right? (given that the scrollbar is on the right)
