I was just wondering why they appear in the heading as sometimes that is the only thing I read and although there may be a good reason for it, it boggles my mind which is not hard to do.

Aha! You, my friend, are one of the reasons why I don't post certain threads. The purpose of this forum is not to read a title which can be titillating but lacks substance. That is provided by the content which details actual facts. Several times I have come across comments which were obviously based on a title whereas the content was quite different and the poster's comments made no sense. Why bother to post comments based on a title? It's pointless.

In answer to your question, however, those symbols result when your computer does not recognize or interpret certain fonts. Failing a comparable equivalent, it places those symbols on your screen.

If I knew what fonts were it might make sense, I don`t know.

But I read the title to see if I want to read the thread or not, if it don`t interest me there is not much point in me reading it. any way I appreciate the explanation.
