Hi everybody,

I followed the instructions on [Rails Internationalization (I18n) API — Ruby on Rails Guides](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/i18n.html)  
exspesly point 2.2 and I couldn’t get it to work properly. After I  
decided to disable it, my whole application crashed and no View or  
Controller is working. Any suggestions on this error?

syntax error on line 140, col 13: ` Hï¿½ 4ï¿½ ï¿½

The snippet at the bottom is the last call on the stack.  
def YAML.load( io )  
yp = parser.load( io )  
end  
with regards  
Jonas L.
