   And this is happening with the SAME message on YOUR system?   
      
   Then it is CHANGING enroute to you?!!  That is very inelegant. :(   
      
   Or.. Is this happening with the Linux version, locally?   
      
   Hmmm..  BTW, it arrived with CP437 from Tommi's system when viewing my     
   post in the NNTP version of that message:

   If you think it's OpenXP doing it, is it happening in both Linus and Win     
   versions?
