Isn't that an argument _for_ plastic graphics?  In the end, I thought,
they are supposed to stand out.

Anyway, if you wanted to make do with letters, you could use =E2=98=B9, =E2=
=98=B8 or
=E2=86=AF.  (I don't expect many people to have the necessary fonts install=
ed
to see them.  Actually I see only empty sqares while writing this
message.  They work with Unifont, though.)
