So the first one that I wrote in this attached file...is it wrong? I  
thought that came from our old DAC work years ago...

In other words, if we were to publish a new ASL Dictionary written in  
SignWriting, how would you write the numbers in the thousands?, like:

2001
2002
1989
3007

Because I want to do that...publish and print a new dictionary in  
SignWriting one of these days, and I find the numbers fascinating  
because there are so many various ways to sign them...
