Interesting article. I'm perpetually fascinated by the causal chains that have influenced aspects of our lives that we otherwise entirely take for granted.

The cold tap is generally on the right side of a sink. This is because cold taps were around long before hot taps and as most people are right-handed they were put on that side. At least that's what I was told (OK trivial example)
