I'm not _that_ much of an ogre, am I?

When I transcribe ballads, I transcribe the thorn as (th), so no one
will be confused. Web pages can actually use the real character
for the thorn. In any case it's a bad idea to substitute any other
single letter, as it leads to the ambiguous situation where people
become confused...
