I'd say it looks La'adan-like ... or rather I imagine it does on a screen
capable of displaying it as intended.  I see it as `.itu=E9 ro ma=E1rbi=ED
...', and the odds of my ever trying to figure what something of that kind
stands for are vanishingly low.  Then again, given the volume of the List,
I have to skip most messages without reading anyway.
