It is the Hebrew alphabet. I run gibberish.co.il, which translates
wrongly-encoded Hebrew into legible Hebrew. In order to do that, I
need as many samples of wrongly-encoded Hebrew as possible. So I
attach those letters to every message, and when people respond back
with the wrong encoding, I can modify my code and add support. Mailing
lists are a great source, as people from all over the world, with many
different encodings, reply and much my beautiful Hebrew!
