This is an interesting remark, from a cultural perspective:

> When one of my customers from Korea was visiting here, I asked him if it bothered him that the backslash doesn't appear as a backslash. It did bother him, and he believes it bothers most of his countrymen. However, he was fatalistic about it, "What can we do to change it. It's been this way for a long time. We are used to it."

It's interesting because, like, no American would say something like that. Ever. And as an American, I find this sort of resignedness to just making do with whatever people give you, puzzling.
