Why do you address Diana?  It seems to have happened to a lot I wrote, including this one.  I write it directly in Firefox, so neither I nor Evan have guessed why it happens.  I blame you.--[[User:05jl|Jonathan]] 17:14, 12 January 2007 (EST)

Well, I just tried to fix all the apostrophes and then made a comment about how annoying they are, which would make Brent address me. Brent, which ones are weird, the ones I took out or the ones I put in? For me, the ones I took out were appearing as the euro sign, something else, and the TM sign with semicolons. The ones I put in seem okay. I'm going to blame it on Firefox/Linux...? because they show up okay on some computers. (I do not compose in Microsoft Word; I don't even have Microsoft Word on my computer.) Is this a curvy apostrophe to you: ' ? --[[Diana Davis|Diana]] [[User:07djd|07djd]] 21:20, 13 January 2007 (EST)

Ya, the ones you deleted were weird, the ones that are there now (and the one in the above comment) look just fine.  Quotes are strange.  Unicode and all that.  Anyway, I'm using Firefox too.  How does that quote look? --[[User:04bay|Brent]] 15:45, 14 January 2007 (EST)

Oh yes, and also, Diana, I'm truly sorry to have insulted you so egregiously.  Of course you don't have Word on your computer.  But the only other times I've seen strangeness with quotes involved pasting from Word, so that's what I thought of first. =)  --[[User:04bay|Brent]] 15:47, 14 January 2007 (EST)

Diana, the curvy apostrophes are strange. Do you compose text in Microsoft Word before pasting it into the wiki or something? Or do you use some sort of strange browser? --Brent 13:25, 12 January 2007 (EST)
