I guess that's another US thing, maybe other countries too.

The keyboard image I found on the internet was interactive and it just 
happened to be the 'Alt Gr'
key I was mousing over. I did learn some things. :-)

Even though the right 'Alt' normally gives the same scan code as 'Alt 
GR' it isn't usually labeled
that way so in the US we more commonly just see two different keys 
labeled as 'Alt'. And things
normally work the same way with either one. I only found this out when I 
was looking for the
layout for the French keyboard layout.

Also there was some indication that US laptops with smaller keyboards 
may cheat and give the
left 'Alt' scan code when you hit the 'Alt' key on the right.=-O
