Yup.  The list server enforces "standard" 7 bit ASCII (aka US-ASCII), which 
includes a very limited subset of symbols.  Anything
else, it does its best to translate to 7 bit ASCII.  The degree symbol gets 
translated to a zero.

That may change soon, I believe our listmeister is experimenting with allowing 
HTML (including selection of character sets) on the
lists.  But it apparently hasn't happened for Shop Talk yet.
