Well, if you're *really* universal, you should bias yourself against 
the illiterate :-)  That's why road signs are now pictures instead of 
words.

But seriously, I thought of this when I thought of signs in most 
international airports.  If it's that big an issue just use some icon 
representing the action instead of words.  Things like that increase the 
slickness factor, anyway.
