[QUOTE="Rob Lancaster, post: 173286, member: 6154"] Oh man I know what you mean about orientation. I'm kind of Dyslexic and sometimes my brain freezes up longer that I'd like. I know what you mean about orientation. I have a Dyslexic problem and sometimes my brain just freezes up. I'm looking right at it but are confused as to its orientation.
