This has to do with the font setup. Scott has used MS Word to write his posts. At the time the page was written, everything appeared fine. Then, at one point, some characters ceased to be recognized in browsers. I ran across this phenomenon several times before. Do not exactly understand how this came about.
there is a link to the famous L¡¯Hospital rule. I¡¯ve tried to open this page several times, but I always get the message: "Server Error. Operation timed out". Maybe the link is broken.
