<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=889024218-24052003>sorry
for the delay - but discussing your early - spelling opens a can of worms and I
spend some time to make several teaching materials to illustrate my idea -

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=889024218-24052003>- hi
Valerie , Charles, Steven -- who else - do you remember our discussion about the
order how to arrange the angle - hands - if the thumb is "mentioned" as well ?
</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=889024218-24052003></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=889024218-24052003>OK

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=889024218-24052003>From
my point of view this is a very interesting aspect to discuss exceptions in
spelling - in order to follow a reader - friendly impression - or in order to
get a "Gute Gestalt" as I call it. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=889024218-24052003>The
last comment of Roald is connected with this problem. ;-) and
I agree with Roald`s point of view that is not simply solved just by adding an
arm line to a left hand -- ha ! </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=889024218-24052003>Following the order of the Parkhursts writing left
or right angle - hands you can identify the hand as a left or right
hand. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=889024218-24052003>Now in
this case the left hand - fingers spread palm down is definitely a
left hand ;-)) </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

class=889024218-24052003></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=889024218-24052003>The
other hand is not as clear because of the direction where the thumb sticks out
-- following the rules it should be read as a left hand - but in order to read
this sign with ease I would accept this spelling as a typical exception !!

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=889024218-24052003>One
possibilty to avoid this problem is to change the point of view - the front view
perspective is shown in my attached gif </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=889024218-24052003>The
left hand in my example is a flat hand - but that should not be the problem.
