If you can display it in your text on Yahoo Answers, it's not a different font, since YA does not support font formatting. Whatever font was used in your browser to display the words "What Font Is This:" that's the same font that is used to display "ℒℯ".
What it is, is Unicode characters outside the normal range you are used to seeing. Those two in particular have the code points U+2112 and U+212F respectively.
When I copy this and paste it into Word and put the cursor on it, Word says (not sure how) it is Lucinda Sans Unicode although it doesn't look the same (bigger loops on the L) Identifying it in the character map - it has unicode 2112 "Script L" in that font. It looks more like a pound symbol which does not seem to be in the font.
Where did you get it? Can you look at properties or source code for a web site and see what it identifies it as?
http://www.sherv.net/weirdmaker.html - maybe you are not looking for a single font but for this website which lets you create fancy looking words with their apps. They use fonts which you normally can find in your font folder. If you want to try it manually, click the "start" button on the lower lefthand corner of your screen. Click "run", enter "charmap", it will show all your installed fonts and the available characters and wingdings for each font. Try "arial", click on the character you want (it even contains musical notes and little hearts). You may click on a specific character to enlarge it slightly and by "copy & paste" you can insert it in any text you want to. On the bottom of the charmap window it will also let you know which keystroke to use for writing that character.
