      Wow...   I'm learning sign language right now and I'm finding 
remembering the signs really difficult.  I find it so much easier just to 
cop out and finger-spell the word when I can't remember it than to look it 
up in the book.    The ones that I have the most difficulty with are the 
ones that look very similar to each other, Ie: Stamp, Letter, Sit, Salt, 
etc.. etc...
      Alas..  I suppose I COULD be practicing right now instead of "playing" 
with the computer <grin>

Take it Easy.
