I have all of the releases in 47 different languages printed out on 
4x5 index cards.  People usually sign with an X after I explain what 
the card says and print their name on the line.  I get the oldest 
child in the family to print all of the names and ages - they are 
usually the most literate.  I carry pens with me - (the most popular 
gift to give to the kids - they love pens) - and I can prop the card 
up on the nearest dog or pig for a flat surface to sign on ;-)
