	yeah, i seem to remember from the old Gletitman psych text that 
expressions of given feelings were pretty universal.  this is not to say
that different people show the same feelings to the same extent as other
people, of course; cultural norms might discourage the display of certain
emotions.  if there were some way to convey a given expression in iconic
form, perhaps that would be as close to a universal icon as possible.
