Note that you’re also using Unicode codepoints that (apparently) haven’t been assigned characters.

 is U+F0E0 (the octet sequence 0xEF 0x83 0xA0 in UTF-8), which is “Unknown character in range Private Use Area”. It’s possible my software is old and later versions of the standard reassigned some Private Use Area characters, but reassignments in the BMP would be very odd this late in the game.

I suspect you wanted U+2248 ALMOST EQUAL TO ( ≈ ) or U+2245 APPROXIMATELY EQUAL TO ( ≅ ).

Yep. After they finished the shoot in Burbank, they folded up the flag and put it back in its package for resale. It could be anywhere.

I thought they filmed it in Area 51. Sheesh, I wish these conspiracy theorists would get their stories straight…
