Posting Symbols On X404
Posted: Fri Jun 04, 2010 12:55 am
Can anyone come up with a sane way of posting non alphanumeric characters on 404?
I just tried to post this:
And I got this:
It's because I typed л^-? which works perfectly on every forum except x404, including the old meeting place which is also phpBB.
It drives me nuts <!--emo&:rant:--><img src='http://i2.ifrm.com/4013/140/emo/angry1.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='angry1.gif' /><!--endemo-->

WTF does that mean? A square mile is a unit of area, not distance!In 2007 it was made illegal to hold an unauthorised protest within a square mile of Parliament.
I guess they mean they have drawn an exclusion area of one square mile around parliament. It might be true, but unhelpfully unspecific, to say "it was made illegal to hold an unauthorised protest within the square mile drawn around Parliament."
If that area is circular, then it's illegal to protest within л^-? (about 0.56) miles of parliament.
If that area is a square, then it extends between 0.5 miles and 0.5^? (about 0.707) miles, depending on the direction.
If that area is a rectangle 0.0001 miles wide, then the area extends for over 9000 miles.
Has anyone seen a map of this exclusion zone?
And I got this:
