what is that?
There are loads people who have trouble this, and not just east/west, but left/right as well.
I never really understood how you could confuse them - I mean, it's not exactly a huge amount of information to memorise, and they're always the same way round - it's like getting up and down mixed up.
There's probably a really interesting explanation for the phenomena. I literally cannot think of a single reason why east/west should be harder to remember than north/south - after all, the only way to flip east/west on a map is to flip north/south as well.

I blame mirrors.
Up and down are always the same but right and left change depending on the perspective. The US pic below does a great job of explaining East and West.
