If I highlight the region and press C-c ^, I get "Nothing to sort",
but it does not insert a caret. It looks as if your Control-C is ignored
somehow.
Once you get the C-c issue straightened out, don't highlight the region:
just place the cursor somewhere in the list and type C-c ^ and then
select what kind of sorting you want from the menu in the echo area.
