Tim,

Although your reply to Clare was dripping in sarcasm :-) you have brought to 
the attention of people one of the misconceptions of Unicode, that, just like 
in Highlander, there can only be one - Unicode table in this instance.

This, as you pointed out, is incorrect, although it was the goal when Unicode 
was first proposed, practice has once again shown that theory often gets it 
wrong.
