Problems getting "?" out of Excel cell

I have a spreadsheet with cells that have values like "≤" and "≥".  I guess these are unicode, but I'm not certain.  When I read these values with "HSSFCell.getStringCellValue()", it seems to corrupt those characters.  Is there anything reasonable I can do about this?

Never mind.  This isn't a POI problem.  I'm having trouble using "Writer" to write these characters out. It seems to corrupt these characters when I write them out, or perhaps I'm getting confused about file encodings.
