As usual, your posts aren't making any sense. Maybe we could ask someone to translate them for us? For what it's worth, I think both you and Robert are correct about the right way to turn a screw. What I can't figure out is why you need to draw on the right hand rule when a simple "clockwise" or "counterclockwise" would do just as well.

I was introduced to the right hand rule as a freshman in high school in physics class (a long time ago) in the context of electricity and magnetism, if I remember correctly. I suppose you can use it for a lot of different things, including screws. But sometimes simpler is better.
