Subject: how to remove strange characters

Hi all,

I grap some info from a webpage. Sometimes I get some stranges
characters as follows (by p):
 To depart in a hurry; abscond:  \342\200\234Your horse
has\nabsquatulated!\342\200\235 (Robert M. Bird) To die.

or (by print):
To depart in a hurry; abscond:  “Your horse has absquatulated!”
(Robert M. Bird) To die.

Any idea to to get rid of them?


Thanks,

Li
