Well...that is great that we understand each other now...it shows how  
valuable it is, that we can share videos with each other now...and I  
have increased the memory now, so there should be no problem posting  
videos to the SW List...

The differences between the two kinds of rocking or tilting motion was  
important to others, when writing. That is why the two ways of writing  
developed, was because we need to be able to differentiate between the  
small and the larger tilts or rocking motions...

I agree with you that it may not be necessary to write so much detail  
because the smaller rocking motion probably could be assumed as a part  
of the movement and still the sign would be understood...but both your  
writings here look good to me, and for me, I do read them as small and  
large...

Thanks for this great discussion -

Val ;-)
