AW: Greek sign name for "Greece"

Val, Stefan, and List -
     When I was in Greece (Athens) in 2000, I asked just this question and
the sign I was going to submit is the same as what Stefan submitted except
that I remembered that the palm orientation was facing the floor (i.e., both
hands were palm-down).  The reason for the sign is the white cross shape in
the NW corner of the Greek flag.
