• Correct Fred.

Then it IS the font, even though you don't know what I see!

I've had problems with "high ASCII" characters over the years. One that
caused problems was Microsoft's use of such a character for the 1/2
fraction, which appears as an Omega symbol (‡) on my screen. Until I
realized what was happening, some Word documents didn't make sense.
Fortunately, newer versions of Word for Mac fixed the problem.

I think the point others were trying to make, is that your use of the
95 (•) character looks bad when viewed by many people. It isn't a
Unix character, it is a Macintosh font character that was in use before
OS X came on the scene.

** thanks Fred. Windows users also have with the ohms character I use.
