How can you really disagree with them?

Especially with the perfectly choosen English words by Sir Richard (so
delightful to read!),which is one more reason for me (who lacks the
basic English grammar/syntax plus my limited vocabulary),to feed my
already biased feelings,against the so called English snobbery.

I just feel better when i know he is still around 'putting his oar in' on the
inappropriate occasion. :)

UTF-8 is here to stay and we all owe to Alexander for his work and to Matthew 
for his determined stance against the issue.
I trully believe that untill the end of this year we will have a fully
featured UTF-8 Book.

Regards.
