On most sites, one clicks a link and reads/scrolls  for a while. I dont get
the "wearisome" moving back and forth concept. 'click, scroll, click,
scroll' -- what sort of site is that? It cant be nearly as bad as a site in
which one has to scroll laterally simply to read some text (due to it being
too wide for the screen).

My problem with a right hand link is this: while reading a longish page, as
I scroll down, the mouse  may slide leftward a fraction of a millimeter and
accidentally click a link. Then I have to go back and find my place.
