i18n bug in Dublin-area 2006 Phone Book !

Wow - that's embarassing : the '06 Dublin area phone book has an internationalization bug, where names containing characters that should have a fada ( eg. á,é,í,ó and ú ) were replaced by a space. Wonder what my friend "S an" thinks of this ? Nice one éircom ! :-)

Sure fadas don't matter to them anymore as they've dropped the é from éircom ages ago...

This is one that eircom can be forgiven for. The Dublin phone book is printed by a UK firm! Of course, this is the ONLY thing we can forgive them for!!!
