> were intrigued to discover that the clicks triggered more amplification
> in the baby's right ear, while the tones induced more amplification in
> the baby's left ear,” suggesting that the left ear, being connected to
> the right brain hemisphere, is better at tones/patterns/waves/analog
> info while the right ear is designed from birth to specialize in
> "clicks",  which are digital/consonants/binary pulses fed to the left
