**geep**: P.P.S. There's a FREE class in Room #101 going on RIGHT NOW for a limited time.

Strictly OT to this thread, Dr. Geep, but the 'Vulcan Salutation' at the opening of your hand pose tutorial is of Jewish origin.  It's the hand pose assumed by the Cohen when blessing the assembly, with the Tripartite Blessing, either in the Temple in Jerusalem (not done for the last 2000 years) or in the modern day Traditional Synagogue.  It's done with both hands held outwards, palms down with the fingertips of the thumbs and index touching.
Leonard Nimoy popularized the gesture in the Star Trek series, but then Leonard Nimoy is Jewish, and started his acting career in Yiddish Theater.
