[Callers] Put Your Red Hand In

This evening I mentioned the brilliant idea to my Tai Ji instructor.  
She loved it and plans to try it with her senior classes, where some of 
the participants can get a little confused.  This will be especially 
useful for her, since she sometimes has trouble with left and right herself.
