Notice to British and Irish Unicoders:

U+00A3 (POUND SIGN) is a cursive "L" with *one* bar through it (cmp.
http://charts.unicode.org/Web/U0080.html). U+20A4 (LIRA SIGN) is a cursive
"L" with *two* bars through it (cmp.
http://charts.unicode.org/Web/U20A0.html).

Please, watch out carefully your next tax form, and remember who posted
this.
