   Hello Michiel!   
      
   11 Jan 13 17:46, you wrote to me:   
      
    KE>>  Between not seein and not reporting, there is a big difference.

    MvdV> 20 years, then it can't be all that big a problem.   
      
    It is not when reading messages, I can guess when you use an accented e,   
    and I see some rubbish. I still understand what you want to tell me.   
    If I get a full page of rubbish, that stems from apparently a user   
    writing, in Cyrrilic, I don't bother, because I cannot read the message   
    in either notation. So there appears to be problem.   
      
    But now you want to appaly the same to texts, that should be read by   
    in this case dumb machine, without the capacity of the IBM Watson system.   
    You can be quite shure that there will be plenty of problems reported.   
      
    How will I handle such addresses with my Fido 11T system and my ASR 33   
    terminal?
