If you had to learn it as part of medical teminology, I'm guessing you learned the 'medical' word, not slang? This is for the medical word (you need Quicktime):

It *is* similar, but not quite the same - and nuances in signing can make a big difference in meaning, so we probably don't need to get so worked up about it. BUT - knowing B - wouldn't surprise me either way if he knew what his gesture resembled

but if anyone is going to tell him, I don't think he'd want to hear something like that from Emilie any more than he would from Jordan or Eve.

In my opinion it is sad to see this turned into something controversial. I truly feel he is meaning to give us his heart by making that sign. Think about it, the heart was the symbol of the Elevation Tour, the heart ramp and the heart suitcase! That's why he did it!

We all know bono just means and love! I dont know why some of you are telling us as if we don't know The sign may have double meaning in a different language but it only means one thing from Bono to us - HEART!
