Heh, got me. I was referring to thumbs + big toes, wrongly assuming the toes are called thumbs in English. I actually had to rummage around in my memory when it occured to me that they're not called the same as thumbs in German either. It is becuase there are no separate words for toes or thumbs in Greek. The thumb is just the "big finger", and the toes are "fingers of the foot", and the big toe is referred to as big finger of the foot. So basically, four big fingers down to the idea. Okay, that was very offtopic. Regards, -- Aristotle "If you can't laugh at yourself, you don't take life seriously enough."
