A more pertinent question is if the @ symbol is on a keyboard why is the therefore (triple dot pyramid) symbol not there (hidden away instead in a symbols font).
Did it not send IBM and Olivetti Christmas cards so got left off?
Nope, can't agree with it being the most useless symbol.... Surely that would be the Euro!... No, my mistake, symbols fine, currencies useless.

I'm no Europhobe, I'm all for a single unified Europe... Of course my way involved British tanks rolling through France and the crushed opposition adopting sterling... You know it makes sense.
Actually, I really can see it getting to a stage where one has to draw a line across Europe. Everyone North of a line can be in the club. Everyone South of the line is now part of Africa (i.e. not our problem).

But us Brits rely on the problems of other countries, surely we would just dwindle and die if we concentrated solely on getting our own country up and running.
A bunch of nosey b's is what we are lol.
Love the tanks through France, should make a great Battlefield map, also can we please do away with foreign languages too?
A French bloke with a Scouse accent is better than a French bloke speaking French.
Do you play Battlefield Bad Company 2 Neil? My boys and I all hang out on the 32 player Arica Harbour map servers on a Friday night. (it's Friday, it's games night)
If you play drop me a line with your userid and I'll add you to Friends so that you can find us.
p.s. Nowt wrong with Germans... Make damn good cars. (did you know that the Tiger Tank was designed by Porsche)

Not a big fan of Bad company 2 , still loving flying the helicopters in Battlefield 2 lol, years old now. That was the game that saw me start building my rig and upping the hardware. I started of with 1 Nvidia 6600gt and a second hand FX chip (the old, probably better than the new FX) then i moved onto an AMD dual core 6000+ clocked at 3.2 with 2 x 6600gt's in SLI. Then i bought an 8600gtx, then SLI'd that. Then i gave up on the SLI and bought an 8800gtx. I kept that 6000+ processor right the way through until buying the 1090t. Oh and a GTX480 when they first came out.
And i thought study was expensive lol. Reading on the Guru3d forums, them 6 core chips arel holding their own and are rated as AMDs finest hour still for gaming.
I have BC2 installed but it will be around the Xmas hols afore i get to gaming again. My gaming handle is kept as spamkebab.
I've prepurchased Hitman and thats due for release soon, it's gonna kill me leaving that alone.
I don't have a problem with German people, it's the language, more of a personal thing, it just seems to be offish and hard, it grates with me.
Notice you didn't disagree on the French though lol.
know what you mean about BF2. We always played the daquing oil fields, road to jahalabad and strike at karkland.
Youngest boy could fly an Apache like it's an extension of himself. I just got to sit in the gunners seat!... I miss bots.
On BC2 my handle is M60_Mad_Dog... Bit ironic really cos I always use either the Saiga for close work or the 870mcs for distance. Only time I use heavy duty machine guns is when I'm putting down suppression for ma boys.
We have all got the Vietnam DLC for BC2 but we never play it. There's just the one map (Arica Harbour) that we've now played every week for above a year.
... How far from a bookkeeping discussion can we get this baby!

It's not in any of the typefaces (AFAICS) that are used for rendering text on this site, so just plonking it into the text box won't work.
If the advanced editor allows entities to be included, you can probably do it that way. A quick check reveals the encoding is ∴ or ∴ - so with luck, if I click on "Show preview" ... it won't work.
Switching to the HTML editor, the two above have the ampersands encoded as &, but typing the two versions directly in still doesn't show the therefore symbol. Throwing them into a dummy web page on my computer works, though, so typing this into a text editor:
<html> <head><title>test</title></head> <body> <p> Okay, let's try ∴ and ∴ - did they work? </body> </html>
and saving that as a HTML file, then launching it into your web browser does work.

The only thing I know is the dot above the i and j is called a tittle (pronounced titel as in little - where are all those phonetic symbols when you need them)
(Not even going to try putting this in)
