    Remove UTF-8 characters from comments
    
    I've used an operating system for over 10 years now that makes
    UTF-8 easy. It's not called Linux or OSX.
    
    When UTF-8 is needed, of course, then we can look again.
    I can't think of a single redeeming feature of placing
    it in the comment in this manner. It's certainy not
    needed.
    
    The inclusion of UTF-8 characters is inconvenient,
    especially from a text terminal.
    I don't really want to start using compose in
    CROSH shell terminals on chromeos.
    
    We might want to incorporate "no UTF-8" as a
    commit filter. For now, get rid of these
    characters.
