Wonderous, indeed. Why would anybody ever need more than one case of
the alphabet? It's almost as absurd as somebody wanting to put funny

True indeed but it gets worse. For example those silly Spanish speaking
types consider this ñ a letter in its own right and not a funny little
mark on top of a consonant :)
