	ANSWER!
	
	Because curiosity killed the cat. A person wants to know about
his/her heratage, his history, if his father is also a lefty. My guess
is you aren't adopted, we can't put ourselves into an adoptees shoes -
the presence of our bio parents is something we've  taken  for granted
for  too long. 
	I just hope that such a search is carried out responsably, with
regard given to the feelings of the people "who were there when needed"
etc...
