You know what's sad? I got genuinely excited because I thought this thread title said "Marker Revolution."

To be fair, look... I'm left-handed. I'd be pretty excited about a new kind of smear-proof marker that didn't leave my hand and the drawing surface looking like unintentional abstract art if I wasn't careful.

Write right to left :-) I too am left handed and if you don't mind annoying people it does solve the problem (well at least as much as it does for right handed people). The weird thing is that when you first write stuff that way its all weird and uncomfortable and then if you force it your brain will flip the switch and you'll write as fast as you ever have. Once you get there its especially fun signing things, that freaks people out.

Of course middle eastern folks have done this forever so its not a 'new' thing in any sense of the word.

Ah, we shared the same reading comprehension issue. Aside from the whiteboard or other fixed-surface situation, you can always just angle the paper. Writing with the paper angled about 60 degrees anticlockwise seems to do the trick.

Fountain pens are another problem area. You have to learn to write without "pushing" the pen. More info here: http://www.nibs.com/Left-hand%20writers.htm --combine that with fast-drying ink and things aren't so bad.
