Subject: Diatonic handedness question

I just yesterday was talking to a 15 yr old friend who has been bitten
by the harmonica bug. She's right handed but is learning to play
holding in her right low notes on the left or numbers up. Her teacher
plays the same way. Coincidentally this is how I play. I don't think
I've ever met anyone else who does this. Every other left handed person
I've ever met plays flipped, numbers down. Is there anyone else on the
list that employs this grip? Personally if I had it to do over I think
I would have either played flipped which is how I started out or
switched to righthanded, holding left cupping right. fjm
