Naaa Ray, just consider using a different declaration.

"iso-8859-15" comes to mind, as does "us-ascii" depending on your targeted
viewer demographics. I would use either before I would use none.

Remember, that at least having one there gives the browser a "smarter"
starting point to guess at. Nothing there just gives the browser free reign
to be creative - that's usually a bad thing, Ray.

HTH,
Fuzzy.
