    Yup. It's true. Now that we 'Mericans are no longer hampered by Neandertal  
    "typewriter" technology right out of a Flash Gordon serial, ordinary  
    people are starting to use accents frequently in their daily lives. You see  
    them ever more commonly in articles, novels, signs, tattoos, etc. It's  
    pretty clear that accents have jumped species from Heävy Metäl Önly and are  
    running rämpant in the wilds of Peöria. They're as English as scrüples and  
    dräms.
    
    Umlaüt on, my friends. Be Exëmpläry. Peäce oüt.
      
    Also known as 'random umlaut disease'.
