Let's see how many of you can see these symbol in your Mail User Agent
(MAU) (ie your E-mail program).  :-)

Use the degrees symbol (Â) instead of the words: degree, deg, Deg
Greek letters with their symbols included (eg alpha (Î) = 3B1 hex)
"integral sign" can supplemented with the symbol â (222B hex)
Double aprostrophe (or s) replaced by the seconds symbol â (2033 hex)
Single aprostrophe (or m) replaced by the minutes symbol â (2032 hex)

These and other symbols can be found at:
