Hi Paul,
you see that :

and ask why ? In the most cases one can see the error from the
Mathematica input. But with the special characters you have to
copy/paste the input into a notebook.
The special characters are fine if you have a text with formulas and
you can name the symbols in your Mathematica code similar to the
formulas.
But in the news group we have no long text with long formulas ...
but we can save the time for copy and paste *and* I look onto
the 7-bit ASCII code *before* I decide to copy/paste the input
and *before* I decide if I can answer the question ...

and if my news-reader would be able to display the notebooks ..
