Karen nailed it. If your are using anything prior to Markdown 1.7
upgrade immediately (the 1.6 series was horribly buggy). Actually,
Markdown is currently at version 2.0.1 [1]. With 2.0 we've made a
number of improvements in a number of ways. However, one thing we are
dedicated to keeping the same is that since 1.7, Markdown will only
ever accept unicode text as input - nothing else. That has been a
tremendous help in eliminating these kinds of problems.
