What we write here is inherently HTML. Greek characters like µ and Ω are defined as HTML entities, and can always be written with "&micro;" and "&Omega;", respectively. There is therefore no excuse here for using "u" instead of "µ", for example, regardless of what keyboard a user might have.

What we write here is inherently HTML.  Greek characters like &micro; and &Omega; are defined as HTML entities, and can always be written with "&amp;micro;" and "&amp;Omega;", respectively.  There is therefore now excuse here for using "u" instead of "&micro;", for example, regardless of what keyboard a user might have.
