While thinking about Meikal's comments on the subject in Thursday's meeting, I came across this in an e-mail:

Note the first two instances of a lower case letter A in the From line.
Apparently someone has generated a lower case letter A in the handwritten form, and expected it to be recognized easily. The alternative being that American English has acquired a Latin Small Letter Alpha (which, note, isn't in our repertoire currently) . . . and is misspelling both "Bank" and "America" to boot.
Just a little more food for thought.
