After many months of procrastination I have eventually put up a
LucyTuning my space: http://www.myspace.com/lucytuning

(This infers no endorsement of the the Australian media monster that
owns it.)

If you are running Safari or other Mac browsers, it is now possible
using Unicode (special characters) (e.g. capital pi ∏) to go to:

Alt+Shift+P.com.

I have yet to figure out how to get this to work on PC's, so I'm
hoping that some very smart tunanik is ten steps ahead of me, and and
will be able tell us all how this works,

and how to do it using a PC for capital pi, and any other exotic
Unicode characters.

Keep on tuning!

You can simply copy and paste the capital pi (actually the mathematical product symbol) into a web browser, which takes you to:

http://xn--q9g.com/

The actual Greek capital letter pi (Π) takes you to http://xn--1xa.com/, which doesn't seem to be in use.
