   I can't tell that it was misspelled due to lack of the appropriate   
   translation in the terminal emulation I'm using. Neither can you. If   
   he'd used UTF-8, which is how you currently have your translation set,   
   you wouldn't have encountered the character set mismatch.   
      
   I said something TO YOU about following up to the bot. There is no human   
   being to address. It's a cron job. Whoever set it up doesn't care what   
   it looks like to a typical Usenet user, and pretty much guaranteed that   
   everybody would have a mismatched character set issue due to declaring   
   that IBM 437 was the character set in use.   
      
   This is advertising. At least it doesn't morph, which makes it possible   
   to kill file.
