Whew! Thanks for explaining the joke! Everyone here really thought they
were serious. Maybe you should write to the authors of the RFC and

"trollface" characters. In fact you could represent every individual
or even single atom in the universe that has ever created since the
BingBang !
But unlike peoples and social entities, characters to encode don't
grow exponentially but still linearily at a slowing speed. ....
