I find http://www.oneposter.com/Product-recordCount-1-stockid-3744.html more closely resembles the ones that I am used to.
naa. If anyhing it has to be an A that's not fully contained in a circle, like in the first
example Ken sent out:
http://www.oneposter.com/Product-recordCount-1-stockid-6050.html
The cross bar of the A is not one neatly connecting the two tall strokes, but that doesn't mean it needs to go outside the circle or touch it.

Of course! It conveys the message, "I hate my parents"!

I still want to see it used *as* text, of which we have so far had no example.
Just like the circled P at 24C5 and 2117 are different and just like the PEACE SYMBOL is not decomposed as 16E3 with enclosing circle...
In less than half an hour of looking at printed samples, I've been able to locate two instances of the symbol replacing the letter A in a word. If that's not use in text, I don't know what is.
