Weird. A comment in Russian

• displays correctly on the individual post's page http://goo.gl/XBjm3 ,
• but becomes a string of question marks '???' on a post' page/comment-page-1/ http://goo.gl/73lNH .

I wonder if it's the theme, or something else in WP?

it shows all ? marks on both links

Yes it does! whether I am logged in (bypassing WP-Super-Cache), or viewing anonymously!

But trust me, at the time I was writing the OP, the situation was exactly as I described: Russian characters via the 1st link, ??? via the 2nd link. Don't know what could happen since then...

are the comments being entered on the blog or are they coming from facebook and being inserted via some plugin?

They are imported from Facebook (from http://goo.gl/cp0KD ) automatically via add-link-to-facebook plugin.

There is probably a character set conversion issue going on. I just pasted that comment into a comment on my local site and it shows fine.

Take a look in teh database and see what the comment looks like there.
Also what is the character set being used in the db?
