Talk into my right ear please …

If you want to get someone to do something, talk into that person’s right ear. People are better able to process information when requests are made in the right ear, according to Italian researchers. The left side of the brain — which gets its information from the right ear — is better at processing speech and language. The other side of the brain is more involved in things such as interpreting emotion. You can also see this tendency when people use the phone. Most will naturally hold it to their right ear."
