1 solution to botched Cyrillic

[Prof Steven P Hill]

Dear colleagues, Welch, and Reynolds:

If nothing else works dependably, there's always one solution that 
never fails:  TRANSLITERATION to the Latin alphabet.  

Best wishes to all,
Steven P Hill,
University of Illinois.

Subject: Cyrillic?
My digest emails spit out what ought to be Cyrillic as

"=C2 =F1=E2=FF=E7=E8 =F1=EE =E2=ED=EE=E2=FC
=EE=F2=EA=F0=FB=E2=F8=E8=EC=E8=F1=FF
=EE=E1=F1=F2=EE=FF=F2=E5=EB=FC=F1=F2=E2=E0=EC=E8
=F0=E5=F8=E5=ED=E8=E5=EC =C2=EE=E5=ED=ED=EE=E9
=EA=EE=EB=EB=E5=E3=E8=E8
=C2=E5=F0=F5=EE=E2=ED=EE=E3=EE =D1=F3=E4=E0 =D1=D1=D1=D0 
=EE=F2 8/5
1960 =E3=EE=E4=E0 =C2=E0=F8 =EC=F3=E6 
=C0=F0=E4=E0=F8=E5=EB=E8=FF
=D2=E5=F0=E5=ED=F2=E8=E9 =C3=E5=EE=F0=E3=E8=E5=E2=E8=F7="

Any ideas for how to get the encoding right?

Subject: Character encoding

I am a new member of the list, and am having trouble reading some of the
messages, such as that below (it's gobbledygook at my end). My default is
Unicode, but I have tried all the Cyrillic encodings I have, and still can't
read this one, and some others.

Is there a standard encoding for the list? (I vote for Unicode, which can
read just about anything.)

Thanks,
Susan Welsh
