Nice thought but sadly no. May just rcrat and reupload the file to see
if libre office did some kind of funky thing.
source has a <feff> in front of the # when page sourced
from Lagrange and fed direct to vim or via mousepad and then vimit still looks like your source page starts with <efff> a bom(byte order mark). " Its presence interferes with the use of UTF-8 bysoftware that does not expect non-ASCII bytes at the start of a file butthat could otherwise handle the text stream."(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark) i had included it in myscrape of your page from Lagrange but i guess that it was filtered out for good reason in the trip from here to there, etc. i suggest lookingat your page source from Lagrange in an editor that supports making theinvisible visible:-) Other pages i scraped do not start with a bom.I now remember having a battle with a bom many moons ago: mostconfusing things as we can't see them easily yet they cause us pain.Live long and prosper V Neil
