One of my colleagues pronounces it "asterix", and has used it a lot so far today because she has to fix the formatting of a document.
Overhearing a call she made, I imagined a letter covered in small but indomitable Gauls.
Send them over to dominate a spreadsheet or two for me, would you? Little Obelixes (Obelixi?) also welcome. There's a miniature of vodka in one of my desk drawers for them (true story).
