Bernie’s Notes
Some of you may have noticed strange characters appearing in the TCN from time-to-time. An example from yesterday’s edition is copied below. The characters seem to appear on a random basis and not all recipients see them. Looking at the example below, “” seems to appear where formatting changes are made, such as bolding and italics. If anyone has an idea why these are appearing, why only some people are seeing them, and what I can do to eliminate them, please let me know. Thanks.
