The text in class RuleBasedCollator contains several 'foreign'
characters. It seems that some tool used in preparing the
HTML has replaced some characters with the '?' character,
thus rendering some explanations unusable.
Excerpt:
 // add a few Japanese character to sort before English characters
 // suppose the last character before the first base letter 'a' in
 // the English collation rule is ?
    String jaString = "& ? < ?, ? < ?, ?";
    RuleBasedCollator myJapaneseCollator = new
        RuleBasedCollator(en_USCollator.getRules() + jaString);
