Unicode (second try)

  Several people have already kindly responded: for none of them was my
message fully readable, and for none were the discrepancies the same. So
much for my naivete! I'm trying again, having figured out how to change
my the character encoding for my outgoing mail to Unicode (UTF-8). (Jan
Ullrich set his mail program to the character encoding UTF-8 for
incoming mail, which should work for those who can control the way their
incoming messages are displayed.) If this looks better to you than my
first attempt, please let me know. My apologies for cluttering up your
mailboxes, but I do think it's important to make a stab at using
Unicode. In the long run, I think we'll all be using it by default (and
it'll be much easier!) I /do/ appreciate all your contributions.
