*ugh* I've looked at the word finger so many times in the last hour that
it has ceased to look like a real word.  Also, reading short phrases
with the word 'fingered' out of context has very cringe-worthy
results.  <br clear="none">
 <br clear="none">
Ultimately, I couldn't find any references to how many fingers Duke
Thomas has.  His wife, Duchess Alberta, has two fingers as written
in Lots.  <br clear="none">
