I corroborate Steven's findings, that Ethan's post was correctly
encoded & displayed.

Thunderbird does offer the ability to change default character
encodings (Edit -> Preferences -> Display -> Formatting tab ->
Advanced...) for sending and receiving, but you have to go out of your
way to change them to something like UTF-8.  On the same preferences
screen TB provides the option to "when possible, use the default
character encoding in replies".
