How to get rid of Unicode?

Hi! After struggling in vain to get my system including emacs "unicoded"
for quite some months, have decided to stop and put everything back to
8859-15 (i. e. Latin 1 + Euro).  Sooner or later I expect the *nix world
to cry out: "Unicode is now idiot-proof and simple" and have decided to
wait for that day.

Trouble is, now I need help to get everyting unicodish out of my system
and out of emacs.  Suggestions how to proceed most welcome.

Greetings,

Lucien

   Get off it.  Linux is a kernel.  Linux distributions are a kernel plus
   all the other stuff.  There are no Linux distributions of only a kernel.

And this "other stuff" is a variant of GNU.

   Yes, he could have said GNU/Linux distros, but the context made it
   abundantly clear that he wasn't talking about just a kernel.

It was also wrong.  Is there any reason why you need to start flaming?
