'Senator Rand Paul, the Kentucky Republican, has taken the floor with a
very different tone. He says he is "offended" by the hearings. Who, he
said, doesn’t try to minimize their own taxes?
"Tell me what Apple has done that's illegal," he said.'

phrase "tax avoidance strategy" being bandied about in the media and
newspapers lately, too. This is being made a dirty word when in fact
'tax avoidance' is historically perfectly valid and legal. I have to
agree with Tim Cook's 'make no apology' position on this subject, too.
'Tax avoidance' needs to be tossed into the trashcan... ...right on
top of the smelly, rotten old phrase 'fair share'...

Of course, after all the dust settles they'll do exactly what they've
been doing for way too many years, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

Doesn't Windows support Unicode?
Flint is using Windows' prporietary char page.
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252; format=flowed
Baker is using Unicode, so those funky characters work fine on his screen
and any one else's that respect international standards.
