Symmetry

In January 2008 I started using this signature. It has 180° rotational symmetry, so it reads the same upside down as rightside up.

It's the third time in my life that I've changed signatures, and there are always some hassles involved (when I was 25 I changed signatures and someone thought I was writing a stolen check). I'd already been using it for a year, signing books with this signature, so I finally just bit the bullet and starting signing everything with it. The first official document was a credit card and the first purchase was for a sudoku book at Værnes airpot in Stjørdal, Norway. In January of this year, the signature went on my driver's license, and all that's left now of my old signature is what's on my passport.
