 Well, nobody can ever accuse you of following the herd!   If there ever =

 Seriously though, this war is over and UTF-8 won.  There may be some =
 small pockets of resistance, but they=92re demographically less than =
 significant (insert standard analogy here of soldiers still fighting =
 WWII on isolated islands in the Pacific).  The Linux crowd switched as =
 early as 2002, and OS X has been using UTF-8 on the CLI as the default =
 for at least 5 years now.

 P.S. UTF-8 is not a =93national character set=94 either.  It was =
 actually invented by Ken Thompson in 1992 and drawn on a placemat =
 (http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/utf-8-history.txt).  It has an =
 excellent pedigree. :)
