Actually it is a circle over the "a" (and the "A") and two dots over the 
"o". The following link may be possible to read in the U.S. - I wouldn't 
know (example of writing):
http://www.oorg.kemi.uu.se/NSCC8/aangstroem.html

The dots and circles create plenty of troubles in the computer world... - it 
is very common that the three kinds of "a" (there is one with two dots over 
it also) creates three different words - at least for short words - with 
entirerly different meanings... OK - I
realize that this is quite off-topic.
