Seems reasonable... Since, in highly rational people, many of whom use almost 
all their left brain neurons to logically, more or less linearly and two 
dimensionally, reason with and sequentially manipulate numbers and words -- there 
are few neurons available to handle the three dimensional movements of the 
writing hand... And so, the automatic writing movements are relegated to the 
right brain -- which is particularly good at handling such spatially related 
movements.
