I agree with Godmar: it looks like (some) change happened to tictocs
between my original wget download and the one I downloaded after I
changed my browser settings. 

It appears Godmar is not going nuts (or at least this issue is not due
to him going nuts!)  ;-)

Viewing the file http://cuvier.cisti.nrc.ca/~gnewton/tictoc.txt
with my newly installed firefox 3.5.6 I see mangled characters:

221	Acta Ortop \u0192  dica Brasileira	http://www.scielo.br/rss.php?pid=1413-7852&lang=en	1413-7852

And my browser default encodings is: UTF-8.

So ignore most of my "solution"!  :-)

PS. I am contemplating trademarking "I see mangled characters"  !! :-)

(Just to convince myself I'm not going nuts...) - this file, which
Glen downloaded with wget, appears double-encoded:

# curl -s http://cuvier.cisti.nrc.ca/~gnewton/tictoc.txt | od -a -t x1
