Yup. Paste into the text box, click preview, then go back to the text box to replace characters as necessary. Go back to preview to verify, then post.

It’s a Communist plot explained on other threads.

Ok maybe not. But it is discussed on other threads that someone link here. Maybe they already have while I am typing this.

Not Bush’s fault.

Yep the slanted quote - apostrophe are giving the ones causing trouble.
Replace them with the verticle ones and all is well.

This has been going on for a few days now with a few diferent threads.

Vertical ‘ “ ! works okay.

Many articles and comments are unreadable. In many cases, this is an improvement.

It's a problem with cut and paste of certain forms of specific punctuations.

“ comes out as “
” comes out as ”
Replace them with "

’ comes out as ’
Replace them with '

— comes out as —
Replace them with -

[The problem forms were only posted above with HTML code]

I rewrite the article and eliminate the original contractions with the real words. That helps somewhat.

On quotes I put a : mark and space down for the quote. That helps somewhat too.

I’ve even seen this phenom affect my Taglines. One in particular with an apostorophe puts crazy garbage in its place at least half the time.
