If you crouch enough, to where your knees and waist are on the same plane, its possible for your zone to be about 6 inches or so. I think all umpires would do the right thing and give the pitcher some leeway on the ones at your letters. Where's he supposed to throw it? The ball is a bit thicker than a piece of paper.

Natural stance means natural athletic standing in my opinion. Hunched over perhaps a tad, knees slightly bent. Thats your strike zone, even if you go into crouching tiger mode.
