@devirkahan Do you mean none of the answers there explain why it's the pinky finger, or that none of those question ASK about the pinky finger?– Double AA ♦May 26, 2013 at 2:14

2Ah, I follow. You're saying I should follow-up with comments in the other question as opposed to making a new question to clarify. No problem. Thanks for the clarification.– WhoKnowsMay 26, 2013 at 2:47
