Well, guess what the similar problem is in 8859-15?

the ¤ glyph, 0xA4, represents a 'generic currency' mark, which you probably are
seeing, in Latin-1, ISO8859-1, while it represents a Euro sign [i.e. an E with
two crossbars, a ( and = doublestruck, a C and = doublestruck, etc] in 8859-15,
or latin-0.

I have a mental image of JIM running over to RiteAid and sticking his

We had one named Woodcock. And the CS department at the local

Grade 8 or 9 (I forget which) gym class: Mr. Willcocks (spelled that
way, not Wilcox as you might expect).

Grade 7-9 math: Mr. Ledger (should've taught accounting?).

Grade 10 English: Mr. Shakura. I went to the first class expecting
a Japanese English teacher, but no, his background was German, he
reeked of coffee and cigarettes (like every English teacher) and
sometimes alcohol (unlike other English teachers, at least during
school hours), and his favourite word was "uhhhhhhhhhh", which he
often used in lieu of silence while trying to formluate his
thoughts, consider his answer to a question, find his place in a
book, etc.

When I was a consultant, one of our clients was a Richard Hunter, who
ran his own market research firm. I believe he also had a few
politician clients.

Game theory boils down to a triplet of simple rules.
One: your best possible strategy is to cooperate; you win maximally.
Two: a poor, but serviceable, strategy is to treat your partner as a
potential enemy--assume that he might do you in and so take
countermeasures.
Three: your worst possible strategy is to cooperate; you get wiped
out.
Vote Cthulhu in 2000! Why settle for the lesser evil?
