Bingo! Thanks Hassan, most of my entries are 'latin1'. However I tried to set them with the set command (e.g., "set character_set_results = utf8;"), that didn't have any effect so I rebooted mysql and the settings went back to latin1 again.
I'm Googling furiously for the answer, but is there a place where I can set these values? My.cnf?
