This is getting wierder. The stuff I quoted the first time came back
to me even more screwed up. For instance the first time I had the
ohs with the slashes. Now I don't see them even though I could
see them before and after I quoted that section. (In the last word
of Nanna's reply to Akim). And the character substituted for the
appostraphe in Nanna's message has now been changed to a big black
dot.
