Sign Dining - Op-Art - NYTimes.com: "In 1944, Alfred Eisenstaedt shot a photo essay for Life magazine, depicting the secret hand signals Sherman Billingsley used to communicate with the staff of this famous nightspot, the Stork Club."I've used these numerous times (adding the universal "pinkie" sign for one glass of beer). Most of the time the people at my table laugh at me, but the waiters always get what I mean. Bless them.
[EDIT]There are more, like the "one thumb, one pinkie" devil sign for Duvel beer, and flapping your hands if you want "light" Coke. Got any signs of your own for noisy bars or restaurants?
