    As it has been pointed out, the unreliability of the euro sign is with the 8859-15 encoding, whereas it works extremely reliably with UCS/Unicode. And so would any other sign.

    in both the Unicode list and in the newsgroup de.test.

    unicode.org shows a euro sign:http://www.unicode.org/mail-arch/unicode-
    ml/y2010-m06/0372.html

    groups.google.com shows a currency sign:http://groups.google.co.uk/
    group/de.test/msg/e027e91e7ef17f62

    Mark Davis called this an "algorithm" inhttp://www.unicode.org/mail-arch/unicode-ml/y2010-m01/0273.html

    I call it brain-dead.
