	I know nothing about metafont and tex, but a couple of us here

<URL:http://oj.egbt.org/dmoore/ding/back.ps>		- the original
<URL:http://oj.egbt.org/dmoore/ding/back.all.ps>	- all Rs backwards
<URL:http://oj.egbt.org/dmoore/ding/back.single.ps>	- large R only


I had to play with the kerning a bit on the all reversed one, and that's
the best I can do with it.
