Cherie -
If you ever get a chance to do more on the Wiki article (and if you  
cannot I understand)...

You know the links at the bottom of the article that refer people to  
other related topics?

Can you add a link to SignBank and SignPuddle Online? Many thanks for  
all this...

SignBank
http://www.SignBank.org

SignPuddle Online
http://www.SignBank.org/signpuddle

Val ;-)

PS. SignBank 8.5 is coming ...I have not forgotten!
