		<description>I suggested a simple symbol made up of the letters i and n (upside down letter U), both in lowercase, superimposed on top of each other.  It was rich in symbolism and very adaptable from the computerization standpoint.  But &#039;editoret&#039; of Timesofindia seemed to favor complicated designs which will never fly... if at all there is going to be a flight !</description>

		<description>Same here: happy with Rs, and always wondered why currency symbols have horizontal or vertical lines crossing. Something  similar to flags of nations always divided into sections using horizontal or vertical lines.</description>
