>> Hello SW List Members!
>>
>> Today, on Skype, I received a SignWriting question from the team of
>> writers at the Deaf Church in Michigan.
>>
>> The question is...how to write the sign for CLASS...6 times...or even
>> 12 times.
>>
>> The sign is showing many classes all over the place, ...in 6 different
>> locations...or even 12 different locations.
>>
>> Their original writing was the attached diagram...but now I am going
>> to try to write it with 6 or 12 locations. I will post my answer to
>> the List next message, and I hope, if you have any ideas, you will
>> share with us...feedback is welcome!
