Edit: Fixed!  It turned out that the plugin I installed to produce pdf files for things like my resume was converting all utf-8 characters on all the generated html pages, too, not just the generated pdfs.  *sigh*  Well, I won’t be using that one.

I’ll be using this space to discuss usability, accessibility, sociability, and perhaps other things that end in “ity”.  I’ve got a few ideas for things to write about, but I’ve never really blogged before, so we’ll see if I ever get around to writing them.  For now, I’ll leave you with my favorite error message of all time:
