Why Japan’s Rail Workers Point at Things

Excellent.

I bar the door with my large umbrella so I can't leave without moving it.

When running laps I keep count by holding my fingers up in front of my face and saying the lap number out loud. It feels weird, but works for me.

For running laps, I use my thumbs as dividers between fingers, which I can do with very little change to typical running form.

For other stuff, this sounds like a great idea that I should try. How many times have I thought "did I remember to lock the car," then walked back to the parking spot?

Well, it's a good thing you did not try to monetize that idea (found a startup), because technology would have rained on your parade...
