If you don't care to store those characters then maybe you should change the database character set to use SQL_ASCII instead of UTF-8. I believe ASCII will quietly discard those characters when converting from UTF-8.

SQL_ASCII is *not* ASCII. See the "What's a good default encoding?" thread on this same list from today.

I don't believe it will discard anything on import if the database is SQL_ASCII encoded.
