    If anyone can "null and void" it, I wonder why companies bother to put such things in people's outgoing mail. I would have thought they could come up with a proper net-etiquite version, but they just don't care.

    Robert Abel noted:



    Note that as of 1993, the only "LAMDA" or "LAMBDA" characters

    in the standard were:



    039B;GREEK CAPITAL LETTER LAMDA;Lu;0;L;;;;;N;GREEK CAPITAL LETTER

    LAMBDA;;;03BB;

    03BB;GREEK SMALL LETTER LAMDA;Ll;0;L;;;;;N;GREEK SMALL LETTER

    LAMBDA;;039B;;039B

    019B;LATIN SMALL LETTER LAMBDA WITH STROKE;Ll;0;L;;;;;N;LATIN SMALL

    LETTER BARRED

    LAMBDA;;;;





    So why was 019B spelled differently than the other two, originally?
