I appreciate all your inputs, and the inputs from Chris & others.

The best I can do is share "my code" so that everyone can benefit.

If anyone has a *better* way to "clean" funky text so that it's
consistently ASCII, then please provide that solution so that everyone on
the ng benefits from your acumen, experience, and helpful intent.

Including me.
Since I use that conversion process a hundred times every day.
