According to GSM 03.38, "Digital cellular telecommunications system
(Phase 2+); Alphabets and language-specific information", section
6.2.1, "Default alphabet", the default 7-bit alphabet available in SMS
messages does not include the following usual characters: ~^\|[]{}
OTOH, it does include lowercase letters, so I suppose the restrictions
in the challenge are arbitrary...
