        By the way, I sign my posts with Gassho. That is just what I do. Some make a mark like _/?\_ (I still don't know how ). But no reason everyone has to do so. In fact, most Leafer's do not, only a small number do. It is not official policy, just what I do.

        However, it is nice to Gassho in one's heart when opening and closing communication with other folks around hear, even if one does not write anything. It is just respectful of the other (who is you by the way).

        Gassho, J

          (P.S. Jundo, to make a _/|\_, the line in the middle is just the shift plus "".)

            AH, well, not on a Japanese keyboard I guess. This might be interesting for you (but few other people! ) Notice such additions as the kanji/Kana/Romaji conversion (変更) buttons.

                    i do not know enough about Japanese to say something about the real meaning. others have done that abundantly. I like the interpretation of the Vietnamese zenmaster Thich Nhat Hanh. He calls it an offering of a flower to someone.

                    here at the end of my posts i put just:
