Speaking of "Religious wars", the above is incorrect. I live in San José,
California, and the name of my city is *commonly* written with an accent.
All the time, by ordinary people, and government. It's part of our
heritage, and the usage is increasing all the time.
See for example:
City of San José: http://www.ci.san-jose.ca.us/
San José State University: http://www.sjsu.edu/
San José International Airport: http://www.sjc.org/
