<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><font size=3
face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>The only problems that I
have with the original spelling is 1)The contact symbols break the point of
contact, and 2)The I handshape is at an awkward position being pinky down and
palm out. Having seen Kelly Jo sign her name to me, I would write the fingerspelling
KJ on the arm with a brush on top of the J to say that the J brushes the arm. I
didn't place a star on top of the K, but it could have been put there if the
touch was really important. I personally think that using the fingerspelling
gives ease to reading because the fingerspelling are fairly standard in SW and
that is what this is. And Charles, to get the arms, what I did was I got the
regular joined upper arm and forearm, and added another forearm to make it
longer to fit all of the symbols. <br>
