It is the Greek mu, but it seems that "u" is the standard ASCII equivalent for it (at least, that's what everyone used on alt.drugs when talking about micrograms, back when I still read that group). So use either one. :) I personally prefer "Mu-ziq" since it retains the pun, more or less. C. -- cspot@netcom.com (Chris.Hilker)........a good-foot dance in a dusted trance
