I think (well I think I think :) left button, right... at an unconscious 
level so I'm not really aware of the change of hands other than feeling the 
"block of soap" (tm) and routing the trigger to click down the appropriate 
arm. Until recently I have never really had to think much at all about 
using mice but having changed to a wheel mouse for my own use has caused 
some difficulties when I find myself faced with a non wheel... "Why doesn't 
the window scroll? I'm sliding my finger back an forth on the top of the... 
doh!"
