Speaking into the right ear
Research shows that people prefer to be addressed in their right ear as they will find it easier to process the information and are therefore more likely to perform a task.
Known as the "right ear advantage", scientists believe it is because information received through the right ear is processed by the left hand side of the brain which is more logical and better at deciphering verbal information than the right side of the brain.

I wonder if the same applies to both lefties and right-handed individuals.
Interestingly, an unusually high percentage of US presidents are left-handed (5 of the last 7 versus 10 - 15% of the overall population). Well, this questionable whether or not this supports or contradicts the obvious conclusion that lefties are so much cooler than all the right-handed folks out there.
