Debby, I could talk to you about this off list but I have observed that as
well. It doesn't always occur but I think it is surely statistically
significant!

Hi Jenine, you are the first official person, no, second, who has
acknowledged that there is an orientation issue for some of us who were born
premature and had too much exposure to oxygen.  I have tried and tried, and
certainly have improved, but for me getting my first dog was part of that
improvement.  The first few years I had her, I walked every day on a bike
path near my apartment.  It was the first time in my life that I'd ever gone
for a walk by myself.  I still have some difficulty.  Thanks 'for your kind
email.  Some people are so judgemental, and they don't 
understand.    Debby and Nova
