Looks fine on this end.

Dan's probably right so I assume that some google tool was used to
bork the ISO Latin 1 to UTF8.

They all looked ok to me, until Dan quoted them.

I was using Google Groups.


Didn't see the original...

bad convert to UTF8.

The point kind of is that Frank's experience does not
necessarily apply to others. He might "control" the
lane and (to some degree) the other people trying to
use it at that particular time and place; but he does
not control the rendering of his messages after they
leave his "Eternal September Newsreader", but he assumes
(insists!) that any experience different from his own
must be faulty.


I could not care less what news reader Frank uses or what he thinks
about what is the proper thing to do on usenet. I was just commenting
on your post that the string was broken and probably due to bad
conversion to UTF8.

FWIW, I'm also using Eternal September so it's not "his" newsreader
that's the problem. When I just posted the strings they were fine. But
I'm using Thunderbird for a news reader, not google groups.

Meant to say not his news server.

Pleased to note SMS filters out unwanted thoughts and positions, so typical of his geo area.


Always glad to be of service bug testing.

I didn't use to filter out avag..., koll..., data... or whatever
identity he's switched to this month, but I kept getting pop-ups "Do you
want to translate this?" when I saw his posts on a web-based newsreader.
If I clicked "yes" it would say that it could not detect the language
and ask me to manually select it, but of course there was no appropriate
choice.
