Waving to passer's by is a measure of community to be sure. It is a must for my utopian community along with "the rule of thumb". "The rule of thumb" being that the local phone book cannot be thicker than my thumb. "The one finger wave" is the wave of choice. "The one finger wave" requires both hands to remain on the steering wheel while extending the right hand index finger. I have lived in areas that utilize a one finger wave, but, the finger was too often other than the index.
