Intro
I'm surprised this one even got noticed, let alone selected to win the Bj�rk tickets. But when I called the DJ to claim the tickets, he said that it was annoying how many people were mispelling Bj�rk and he was musing over some form of spelling test to enter the theatre. The grand loser? Some guy who asked for the "be-york" tickets. This is what I sent:
The Odieresis Aware Fax
I would like to win the Björk tickets.
How much would I like to win the Björk tickets, you ask?
Well, I would like to win them so much that I consulted my arcane computer manuals to hunt down that letter "o" with the two little dots over it (not a pleasant task). As if the actual "ö" in print is not proof enough for you, I will pass on the actual command key sequence to obtain the odieresis character (consider the proper name for the "o-dot-dot" a free gift).
OK, on a Macintosh keyboard you type "Bj" then the command key sequence of Option-U-O to get the odieresis, and finish with an "rk."
Björk
Voila! You are now odieresis-hep (on a Mac anyway).
I hope you find this hard sought bit of information useful!

P.S.,
Please play Nirvana's "Breed," NIN's "Sin," or George Bush's "New World Order" (w/Ministry backing him, of course) if you get a chance. |

Regardles if you've been to the music page, let it be known to all that the concert was about as exciting as the raw fishies Björk used to cut up for a living. Hey! This fax saved me fifty clams. Sorry... bad pun. BTW, this fax is definately showing its age. Nirvana!?!
