							| If you write it by hand, it is always above and to the right (like an exponent in Mathematics). If you �re doing it on the computer, you don �t have a choice, so you write "1st" and some software will leave it that way, and others will change it for you. It is correct either way.   Bruce |  14 Apr 2010
