        Never :-D Left is top right is down, left/top right/bottom, if I think about my Screen.... Nevertheless, you Point out a serious Thing: A Bachelor is thinking about the magnetic field. His help is, with the screw Driver I Need to turn right to screw, so the magnetic field goes this way.... while .... a Dr. degree (what else) when screw in a screw remembers about the direction of the magentic field to decide in which direction he has to turn the screw Driver in practice. :-O

        It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question

                    Any day when you feel your job is pointless, life is futile, and you are getting nothing useful done: just remember, there is a man in Germany who for his entire working life has been - and will continue until he retires - fitting indicator blinkers to BMWs.

                          They used to make sure we knew our hand signals, as well, when talking a road test to get a drivers license. The don't anymore. The comments on modern hand signals I could use as a followup are rather obvious.
