Your ^AEOTs are essentially in the 'middle' of the 'text'.  One problem
with EOT is that some tosser (don't recall which) scrunches all kludges to
the top of the msg.

Nothing inherently 'wrong' with it.  In an r18 regional down here some
folks were having fun embedding 'hidden' msgs. :)  I normally read with
kludges off so I didn't notice them until someone mentioned it.

Absolutely, but at least they wouldn't interfere with normal reading or
text2voice converters.
