Hand Signals to identify other .org members

Just a thought and I know it sounds kind of dumb...but I'm pretty sure I see other .orgers on the road. If I wave at someone and they're not a member, I look like a moron. Maybe we can set up a signal to identify ourselves to other members. Any ideas?

Everytime you see a Maxima, just extend your middle finger upward toward the driver and watch for the same signal in return.

What about a secret handshake at high speeds? I mean, if you want to be SURE its a .org member, let's not do this half-assed right?

heh..

just rapidly flash your HIDs! (no, dont).. I was on the interstate and there was a 2k2 behind me.. this semi signaled that he wanted in front of the max... so the guy starts flashing his HIDs (alot) to let him in.. I just had so laugh.. so much for reading an owners manual or common sense..

Just pull over into the next rest area, but STAY AWAY from the bathroom stalls.

You can burn out the ballast by quickly turning them on\off. Not a good idea.

My suggestion: an upside-down "OK" signal. The middle, ring, and pinky form the "M" for Maxima and the index and thumb form the "O" for Org.

Why not if seeing a possible .org member, you floor it, and the other person doing the same? Ok, or maybe not, I don't know.

Have you tried doing this with your hand? It seems kinda limp wristed to me. I don't want to appear gay to non members...Not that there's anything wrong with that.

My suggestion is use your toes. Should be easy. Here in Phoenix useing the wrong sign can get you shot by gang-bangers if it's the "other" gang.

I would...if they were cooler stickers. Having MAXIMA.ORG on my car is not cool. I don't want to have a website on my car. Having a sticker that says...lets say, " GrOuNd ZeRO" on my car is cool. Rename the site, loose the "dot com" crap and I'll advertise.

too difficult to come up with a hand signal. why not just make an "O" with your hand? could stand for .Org

And if the other driver makes a weird face and gets mad, then u use the middle finger idea.

How about combining the middle finger in one hand and the "O" symbol in the other hand and then, with a rapid movement, go in-out-in-out the "O" with the finger. People who gives me the finger on the road love to see me respond with this one...
Just make sure you don't get too excited and do it for too long, since you could loose control of your Max.

I'm assuming none of you guys live in Southern Cali. or Chicago, where errant handsignals can get you shot. Maybe someone could figure out a way for only one headlight to go off & on when you flash someone. Then it looks like we're winking at each other.
Even though I hate to plug products, why don't we all just buy maxima.org stickers. We can then hold them up when we pass another maxima.
