    Stefan,

    The point that I was making was not to actually encode Unicode in Morse but
    to make people think of Unicode in a different light. Morse code is a
    different media and its purposes are different from most applications that
    employ Unicode.

    Mapping between Morse and Unicode is like translating between different
    language that represent different cultures.
