   Hallo Nancy!   
      
    NB> [the above set came on four separate lines for at least one bbs]   
      
   That particular bbs would be substituting 0x0d for 0x8d while the rest are   
   stripping the 0x8d from the utf8 characters completely which of course   
   completly corrupts them.  In this example I only posted 4 16 bit characters   
   with 0x8d as the trailing byte but there are definetly more that will get   
   corrutped, not to mention the 24 bit and 32 bit characters.  I posted two   
   emoticons (32 bit) to Ozz that will get corrupted by the same bbses.  They   
   will no longer be valind utf8 characters whether just stripped or substituted   
   with an ascii (C0) control code.  The substitued ones will be more obvious as   
   to what form of corruption occurs.   
      
   Sad times indeed.  :::sigh:::
