Oh cop on. *You* provided the info. It would have been proper for
*you* to verify that what you're posting is actually useful and
doesn't contain erroneous characters. It ain't rocket science. I
checked the characters you provided and detected that they were wrong;
you ought to have done just that, *before posting them*. But hey, we
all make mistakes, so it's entirely understandable and forgivable --
just don't be defensive about your little screw-up.

My suggestion is that you're more diligent next time and don't try to
pass the buck and blame for your mistakes to others.
