I hope, since this is not about "USS", that I won't be moderated on
this. I wish to reply to a question John McKown raised on 18 Nov :"And
what is the proper word for the PL/1 "not" sign' ? (x'00AC' in
Unicode). It is a standard operator in formal mathematical language,
AFAIK almost universally used to indicate logical negation in an
expression, and normally called the "negation symbol", but informally
called the "not sign".

The only name I heard for it, that I remember, was "inverted
circumflex". How about that for a meaningless mouthful? :-)
