upside-down exclamation

That's the sign for cent (a penny), isn't it?
That's my 2¢.

A c in parentheses, I don't see why that needs special characters when
ASCII will do the same.
I like the © and ® alternatives to the above list. But it always takes
too long to find all the characters I want very infrequently, so I
collected them all into a file for easy pickings. I don't even use all
of them, but want to have them available:

Even though this selection is much smaller than the Character Map
program, I tried to do some logical groupings to make it easier to find
things within this much smaller group. I don't think to use them
sometimes when I could. Just now, I see that I have radio buttons and
checkboxes that I had forgotten were in there. I could have used those
just a few days ago in another email. :(
I think I went thru the entire Character Map program listing of
characters and snatched every one that looked like it might be of
interest to me. I put them all in a file. I made a tiny script to call
the file. Then I placed an icon on my launch bar (where it would always
be visible) to call the script. I have it pop up in a terminal window,
and the script keeps it open for 60 seconds. I just cut and paste.
less-than less-than
...and so on. Looks like it all came through correctly here.

P.S. I didn't receive this email as UTF-8, but at least one of the
characters in my response is tripping tBird to prompt me to send in
UTF-8 (which I will).

If the Big Bang is supposed to be cyclical (explode, decelerate, stop,
fall, accelerate, compact, explode, decelerate, stop, fall, accelerate,
compact, etc., ad infinitum), why does there seem to be evidence that
the current expansion is *accelerating*?
