here's your odd thought for the day.

If one is supposed to signal distress by turning the flag upside down, what does one do when one's flag has horizontal symmetry?

I'll be pondering this one for a while. :)

As far as I know, that convention is purely American, and not something more universal. Didn't that become the convention because it was once used by some fort the Indians captured?? TTBOMK, there is no such convention regarding using the flag itself as any sort of signal here. We have a nicely vertically symmetrical flag.
