I remember the days of unclosed HTML tags and rampant italics!
I don't know how we survived...
We never would have, if we hadn't learned how to turn off the Italians.
I think we should count ourselves lucky we don't have to learn Morse code for this site.

The fix is easy: Yes, many of us know that and take the necessary steps.
However, my question is why is it a problem now when it was not a problem before now?

Eschew apostrophes and quotes. ...and the "M-dash"--use two regular dashes instead, it will print the "M-dash".

Something changed. You used to not have to do that.
It began when we got rid of all the Italians......

“Use this website...it works!!!”
I use that website frequently, and it often fails to remove all of the problem characters.

You’re right. If the Robinsons can’t figure out what went wrong, they should hire someone who can.
Articles have been unreadable for months now.

But the squiggles are an age old FR tradition! Nigh on a par with having your sister's arm bitten by a moose as she heads off for a shower. Though not as humorous, certainly.

I noticed that the funny quotes seem to be missing from the posts excerpts on the main page. I wonder if this has been fixed?
